Anyone else see these? I wonder what's different about them?

 

It just means you don't have to buy the 05-10 or GT500 Mounts to make them fit on your 11 and up.

 

Would you still need caster camber plates then?

 

^ This is correct. The Koni STR.T is the first ever individual strut made for the 2011+ Mustangs. Before if you wanted to change the struts, you had to buy the 05-10 Sturts and GT500 mounts to make them fit. That's no longer necessary, this is a direct factory upgrade!

I'm getting ready to install a set on my 2011 GT and am really excited about it. On a lowered car your factory struts can only last so long, so it's definitely time that I upgrade them!

I hope this helps! Let me or my CS team know if you have any questions or need some assistance.

Depends on how low you go or how much adjustability you want in the front end.

 

Are you lowered? If not then not unless you want to adjust the caster and camber, if you are and you need to realign everything then you should but could always just get camber bolts.

 

awesome!
I've been considering the Koni Sports (single adjustables for '11+) because if I have to buy new mounts for the STR.T the price difference is less. but now if the STR.T is for the '11+ this will be a great budget package.

 

You will only need Caster Camber plates if you decide to go lower than 1.5" in the front. Any drop that is 1.5" or less won't require Caster Camber plates, just a basic alignment will be fine!

Hope this helps!

Yea I was just looking at getting steeda sport springs and running them with the Konis.

Probably won't be doing anything soon though I just bought a Ford Ranger that is going to be a project.

 

If your going to stay with the stock upper mounts be very careful disassembling the struts, the stock upper mounts will fall apart if you look at them the wrong way. I was really careful taking mine apart and I wasn't planning on reusing them and one side came apart and spread bearings all over the garage. You might want to invest in a set of new mounts just in case , and then return them if yours don't disintegrate like mine.

I just ordered these from AM along with some other suspension parts. Hopefully, I will not have to order strut mounts and can use the factory ones. I only have 2500 miles on the car so they should be ok.

 

^ First, I like your garage good choice in cars, wish I could have afforded a 2012 GC Overland. Beautiful cars...

Just be careful taking off your OEM shocks and make sure the mounts stay together. The new Koni's are designed to fit the 2011+ mount.

Camber/caster plates are a great addition though if you want to fine tune the car.

 

I wish I saw these before my wife bought me some GT500 mounts for christmas.

After talking with jay@hypermotive I ordered a set of the ground control cc plates. I've skimped on lowering cars before and I've always had to go in and redo certain things so I wanted to do it right the first time. He is very knowledgable and helpful.

 

thank you Sir
