Best CC plates?

ttocs · Mar 14, 2012

I have been dyin to get mine on as well....

I wanted the Griggs CC plates. But due to money. I just bought the MM CC plates. The among almost everything else MM makes is the best deal on the market for suspension.. MM works wonders..

So much so they convinced me to spend more money the other day

I put them on, easy as pie. I went to get aligned right after, and they didn't even have to adjust the camber. I'm such a boss.

I've had a "that looks about right" alignment on my car for months haha.

Shifty Powers · Mar 22, 2012

I look forward to aligning mine.. Should be fun with the Bumpstear kit... not

Well two new edges came into the shop, one with max motorsports cc plates and one with upr 4 bolt plates and they both leave with perfect camber/toe with a tiny bit of possitive caster so they both did there job. Id be more likely to buy the upr cc plates while considering quality and price of upr... Not hating on MM cuz there gangster although a bit more costly to so the same job.

Well i helped jeremy put his on and they were pretty easy so i am most likely going to get those within the next week or so as long as i can get an alignment it works =]

I like my tires too much and hate buying new ones. When I get mine on it will be in the shop that afternoon.

I love my MM C/C plates. They really made the car handle quite nice along with the steeda bumpsteer kit. I actually want to get 03 Cobra LCA's with steeda ball joints to seal the deal on the front end for handling sake. I know the 03 Cobra LCA's keeps the ride height on 96+ cars because of spindle, but on the 94/95 cars they bump up the ride height for them. I also heard that the 03 arms give tighter turning radius as well.

^^ +1 to this.. When im done rebuilding in a few months(parts already bought and on the way). That will be my setup on my 96 cobra. MM CC plates, MM bumpsteer kit, Poly Isos/other bushings, 03 cobra A-arms, steeda x2 balljoints, Koni yellows, and H&R Race springs, annnddd MM XL Subframes for good measure.
-But you are correct as far as turning radius and better handling as far as 03 cobra LCAs go. But according to MM, bumpsteer is not exactly a bolt on part(that just bolts on and does what it needs to do) and is quite annoying to try and measure/properly adjust. So we shall see what comes of that part of it.

When I installed my bumpsteer kit, this was purely a guessing game on how much spacers should divided that connects to the inner tie rod piece. And you know whats funny, just from eyeing it up, and guessing I got it on perfectly. How I know I did this correctly is when I jacked up the car from the stock subframe the bumpsteer kit was parallel with the LCA off the ground with the tire in the air. And when I drive it on the street the wheel doesn't wander every where but stays straight over horrible bumps.

nice job man

I picked up a brand new set of Steeda 4-bolts for just about half price a few years back. they've been on 3 cars and have seen about 50k miles of combined use n Shitty NYC/NJ roads. No issues and they're rock solid.

I'd say they're as good as the MM ones so either way you go would be awesome, MM or Steeda.

How much are the UPRS?

I got MM4 bolts for 190 shipped from AM.

I didnt realize how awesome the MMs were untill I bought them...

I was extremely impressed by the quality of them to be honest and im not some MM fanboy.

This is very true. It doesn't take buying many MM parts to realize the quality of their stuff is why it's more expensive. Their CC plates though are like the same as everyone else's, unless you opt for the chrome version.

My car had J&M ones on it and the rattled and banged around over bumps and were soooo f*cking annoying and made my car sounds like a POS when you rode in it. Put stockers in and got it pretty close to spec on the aligner at work, advantage is I can just remount the tires and swap sides when they start to camber wear

Haha i cant wait they are waiting for me at home =]] Although the install will have to wait because of my work schedule.. =[

gopher_6_9 · Apr 16, 2012

It really isn't bad. It wasn't my first time, but with an impact and hauling ass it can be easily done in an hour if that is all you are doing, it took me a little less than 3 but I changed front and rear springs and crap as well, and we stood around bullshiting part of that time.
