[QUOTE="JAJ, post: 16003237, member: 131874"] Ford themselves sell camber bolts for Mustangs. I used the FoMoCo ones on my S197 together with camber plates to get over 3 degrees of front camber. I haven't bothered with them on my GT350 because it doesn't need the big camber numbers that the S197 did. The S550 chassis uses M16 lower strut bolts and they're torqued to 185 ft-lbs, which isn't nearly as much of a "stretch" as 166 ft-lbs was on the M14's used in the 2011-2014 S197's. Ford also moved the lower strut bolts closer together on the S550, so that means that the bolt can give the range of adjustment without being ground down as much. That all said, I haven't seen a set of S550 camber bolts, so I have no idea if they're a good idea or not. What I did on my last S197 was actually to slot the bottom hole on the strut itself. That allowed me to gain some camber and keep using the stock bolts at full diameter. It worked like a charm. [/QUOTE]
