my H&R Super Sport springs will be here tmrw and i plan to install them as soon as the delivery shows up. 2" front, 1.5" rear..will alignment be required? also will i need c/c plates? i'm building on my most recent buy, bone stock 04 GT 40th Anniversary

Yes you'll need an alignment buy you will be able to drive it.

IDK if you know so I'll just say it, Don't remove your strut from the strut tower, just remove the large bolts at the top of the spindle and zip tie the caliper off to the side.

alright thanks, yeah i actually just found the install instructions on americanmuscle..another question though, if an alignment had to wait for about a week, how to i adjust my camber? i'll just be eyeballing it to get as close as possible, but i have no idea where the camber adjust is

Sxynerd

Yes, it can last a week BUT it's going to "track" a lot. Don't eyeball it, just install the springs and don't mess with the alignment just drop it and let the shop do it whenever you get around to it.

Did you get Caster Camber plates as well?

jared_brown

no i didn't somewhere i saw that they weren't always required..and i went off that instead of my instinct..but before i get the alignment i'm going to order them..does it matter if i go cheap?

Sxynerd

The old adage, "you get what you pay for." applies to this as well. Maximum Motorsports, Steeda, BBK are all around the same price of $200. I think the cheapest you're going to find is around $180 for a quality set.

They are not always required but the SS springs are pushing the envelope with how much they can adjust it. I don't have them on my 96 and it's slammed but it still drives well, whereas my 03 sets just a bit higher and needs them badly. I think a lot of it has to do with the shop doing the alignment.

guy that did my alignment said it was a good thing i had the cc plates cause there was no way he could line it up with the stockers. I have the Supersports
