I have a set of these Steeda ones on my car.


They allow alot of adjustment. But the problm I have is that the bushing that is used on top of the strut wont allow it to move. So the plates allow adjustment, but I cant move them much because of the bushing. I didnt install them, they came on the car. I havent got to messing with it yet. But I think I need a different type of bushing or sumthing'. THe Steeda plates appear to be a fine set of plates though.

was there a big difference on the steering handling and the ride after installing this?
