Steeda offers a control arm relocation kit for the front end. When using their springs, does the kit aid any in camber correction? The pics online don't give me enough detail to view what's going on.

Also, reading the 8,538 pages on the camber thread, most people using Eibach needed camber plates. Steeda was up in the air.

Do those using Steeda springs need camber adjustment greater than the factory provides?

Thanks.

I had the steeda ultra lites installed by ford when they performed the work for the tsb regarding the popping noise on some early cars. I did not have caster/camber plates. I had installed the rears and an adjustable panhard before I took it in for the fronts and then just had ford perform a 4-wheel alignment to bring everything back into spec. (as recommended by steeda). Camber: -1.0 left/-0.9 right. Caster:6.9 left/7.4 right. Thrust angle 0.01.(rear) They had to install a shim kit and notch one control arm a minor amount to get the caster in spec.

I am extremely happy with the results. Better turn in, flatter cornering with less bounce. Don't feel like your up on stilts anymore. Absolutely no difference in ride except for the slightest increase in harshness over sharp edged bumps like expansion joints. And, of course it looks better.
