Camber bolts and Caster/Camber plates?

Would there be any reason not to run a car like this?

Like what?  Your post is very vague.

Sorry, man. I plan on using Fox Mustang A arms and struts with New Edge springs. I'm wondering if using Maximum Motorsports Caster/Camber Plates and camber bolts would have a negative effect.

Get a set of the MM CC plates and call it a day. You are not modifying the suspension enough for the camber bolts. Sounds like a solid plan though.

What year car? I needed to slot the strut towers, and use camber bolts to get any measurable amount of negative camber when I put fox mustang control arms on my 87.
It's Gumby's fault.

Use your lower arms if your doing a fivelug conversion and use 94 up v6 or cobra spindles and struts it will also level the controll arm and u won't have to do anything to rack just adjust at the top a little and adjust the toe it will be toed in a lot ?

Holy hell. What? If you have a factory K-member you want 94-95 spindles to keep the geometry correct and not have to deal with bump steer. If you install a tubular K-member then typically you want to use the 96-04 spindles as that is what most manufacturers design off of. There are tubular K-members that are designed around the Fox spindles as well. Lesson here is ask before you buy as to what spindle you need to run.

As for the tie rods it's been discussed a lot here so do a search.

From a previous thread he mentioned an 88 Cougar so that would be my guess as to what he is working on.

Alright, well from what Tbird232ci it might be in my best interest to source a Mustang K member.
