I'm looking at buying CC plates to fix the alignment on my lowered 01 cobra. I know MM has been around awhile but, the J&M seem well built and are priced well. I'm looking for someone that has experience with both to give me an opinion on them. Is there any difference on adjustment or which would be better for coilovers later down the road?
J&m or MM Caster Cambers

I installed J&M ones a month ago along with my k-member and coilovers. Good quality pieces. Straight forward installation. I ordered them from AM, missing some hardware but AM quickly resolved that issue.
Never had MM ones though.

Thanks do you know if one has more or less adjustment?
If you decide to get the J&M's just make sure they're built to handle Coil overs. The MM's I know for a fact are built to handle coil overs.
I've used the MM's, however I bought them used on here for less then 1/2 the price. Work great , a little noisy though but most CC plates make some clunks or noises.

I will call J&M and talk with them about the CC plates to feel more
comfortable about them.

I've bought MM CC plates for two Mustangs now and am well pleased. I don't have any experience w/J&M, but I know the MM plates are designed to be used w/coil overs. I read that the J&M spherical bearing is replaceable, but MM's is guaranteed (I'm sure to the original purchaser).
Also, it looks like the J&Ms may not have as much caster adjustment since it uses double nuts/bolts in the slots.

Well, I ended up buying the J&M after talking to J&m and late model restoration. They both spoke highly of the plates and they are designed for coilovers. After the 7% discount and my 25.00 off giftcard that I won on facebook I got them for 123.79 to my door. I plan on running the 4th bolt so hopefully they explain well where to drill it.
Ok, so i got my caster cambers yesterday and the quality is great! I'm probably going to install them this weekend with a steeda bumpsteer I got from MPS.
I wish I could get that jlt cai elbow looking better it looks dingy.
I am using the J&M's with coilovers. No problems here.
I do remember it was a PITA to drill the 4th hole as well. Lol.

Thanks the jm are very good quality.
Turtle wax F21 for the jlt elbow
It didn't work at all I think it's too oxidized.
Mothers back to black :shrug:
I absolutely hate my JLT CAI. Ever notice at WOT that elbow likes to bow in a bit? Im changing mine over to a more solid intake soon.
OP what kind of caster/camber numbers are you gonna shoot for?
I went all the way positive on the plates and actually he didn't have to touch them at all where I had them set.
