    Front strut mount plates

    I am tired of my rattles with my Steeda Caster/Camber plates and I no longer have the car lowered. Does anyone know where I can buy some new Ford front strut mount plates - the part with the holes for the 3 bolts? I would like to go back to the stock setup with some poly strut bushings.

    Are you sure the rattling is from the steeda plates? Ive been running aluminum steeda caster camber plates for almost a years now with no noises at all. Just great benifits when it comes time for alignments.

    If you want to get rid of them I'm sure my buddy will give you his stock plates and some money for them. No reason to not put them to use.

    Let me know in a PM.

    no. the SN plates are larger shark-fin? kinda shaped... i have a pair from my 99 you can have, 'cept i'm stuck in Castle Shannon?

    serious;y tho. CC plates shouldn't rattle if they're bolted in tight.

    Well. I decided to keep the c/c plates and had the sperical bearings replaced with new Steeda bearings. That didn't fix the problem. I'm thinking it is possible the rattling is coming from the front brake calipers/pads. I have some new powder coated red cobra loaded calipers I will be installing this spring. I'm hoping that fixes it. I can't figure it out.
