The Track Use Addendum says to set it at -2.25°, but we all know that is not enough, so how far will it go?

-2.5°?

-3.0°?

I'm not sure the factory plates go past -3. Might even be less than that.

I have those from ford performance on mine, I modified mine for a fantastic grocery getter. Perfection as I will never take it to a track.

-2.25 is what I got maxed out from the factory plates.
Thank you!

Finally an answer!

That is the Track Addendum recommendation for the front for a track alignment, so it looks like they are recommending what is the maximum.

Odd that Ford would not have permitted more adjustment so long as they were going to install adjustable camber plates.

What is the harm in allowing -3.0°?

Yeah, I remember the factory plates don't allow for as much as some people would like. I had Steeda plates on my Mach 1 and those went to -3.5 I believe. I wouldn't mess with it honestly. Those plates where a headache to install and adjust.

Yes, because unfortunately with Fords design, camber changes Toe on both front and rear.

For those looking we offer great ways to adjust camber up front and camber and toe in the rear, let us know if we can help!

Technically yes. Although many will say no. While not as critical as Toe, having different camber on one side will throw things off. Especially on a car with wide tires and an aggressive tread pattern.
