The MM plates are designed to move fore/aft to adjust and lock down castor independent of camber. The MM plates offer limited castor adjustment of 0.7 degrees.

ok, I stand corrected. I would be more concerned with bump steer then caster in our cars, but still, you are correct.

Ok, I have a dumb question. what is bump steer? and why is it a problem with our cars? I haven't lowered mine yet, but I will be doing the Stage 3 setup, and haven't decided on the caster/camber issue. The stage 3's don't seem to have a caster/camber plate from the factory, so why would we need them for the stage 3 setup?
