99 cobra caster and strut replacement
I am going to replace the master caster plates and struts in the front. I was wondering what people thought about just putting oem parts back on it. It is my daily driver and comfort is pretty important to me.
Thanks

Unless your getting OEM dirt cheap i'd upgrade to MM plates 
. Well worth it imo.... greater range of ailgnment mobility. And if you can't use it now who know's maybe in the future esp if you ever upgrade shocks & struts. Because Im inferring your replacing struts with OEM struts again?

I think it would be a waste of time,effort,and coin installing stock
OEM replacement parts in your mustang.I would upgrade and install
Steeda or Maximum Motorsport caster camber plates.Out of all the
struts and shocks I have used over the years I really like the Tokico
"Blue" struts and shocks for their performance and bang for the buck
value.If you still have the stock Ford springs I would get rid of the
4X4 stance and install a nice set of aftermarket lowering springs
like the Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs.Your mustang will look alot
better after it is lowered!

Im with this guy
Throw some springs in there to drop it, some MM CC plates, and tokico blues on all 4. However, if it were my car... it would get some drag struts and shocks, new bushings in the rear + an IRS brace, yank the front sway bar, and some 4cyl springs in the front. It would ride like a boat an be comfy

I am replacing the struts too. I would lower it but I wasnt going to do the rear shocks until I had some more money saved up. Would everyone still get the same MM plates and Tokico struts if I decided to change the springs at a later date?
