GC only company who sell Camber & CASTER plates for 2.5"?

[Mucci]

Are there any other companies that sell adjust plates that do both camber and caster for 2.5" springs?

IE's don't have caster adjustment and the KMAC plates appear to be designed for stock springs.

GC's units are on backorder.

At one point there was a person in Poland selling such on ePay-

their stuff looked pretty good for what they were asking.

 

Otherwise, you can always slot the stock mounts.  Or just drill new holes

if you don't need adjustability.

 

The GC parts are well made and durable.

I do need the adjustability in both directions.

GC isn't particularly chatty, but have you tried getting an ETA from them?

 

Slotting the strut tops would be kinda messy, and also probably

warrant some reinforcement underneath.  Which would be less

than easy...

 

I went looking at the VAC website, since I'd trust them not to sell

junk, and both Feal and JRZ have later- model parts that look

to be adjustable in both axes.  

It may be worth seeing if they have 2002 sized parts

 

t

really can't recall another company that does caster-

whyfor do you want it adjustable?

instead of going direct to GC, try going through Bimmerworld.  They are a major outlet for GC and can get results.

 

run away from KMAC crap.  i wouldn't install those on a competitors car....

I sent VAC and GC emails asking if they had them / when they’d be in stock. No response from either so far. 
 

I want to be able to test out different degrees of caster to see how it affects steering. My caster is only around 2.5 ° right now and there isn’t very much restoring force to bring the wheel back to center. On top of that the geometry in this car isn’t very symmetrical so having some adjustability to dial in the #’s would be nice.
