...and all they could adjust with my MAC plates were the camber settings and of course toe. You see there was a problem getting some negative caster because my strut tower brace on my 94gt was in the way! Now, I must say this is a sh**ty design from MAC. I know I put them on right because there was just one way.

Have any of you guys had this problem with MAC plates.

Now I know what you're going to say. Ditch the MAC's. OK OK. Before I ditch them I just want to make sure.

I really want to go with MM because of the 4 bolt pattern and because of the fact you don't have to move the plate at all. All you have to do to adjust caster/camber is move the triangle around the strut right? And they look good.

But what do you guys think about the and J&M compared to Maximum Motorsport? How hard is it to drill that forth whole?

My alignment guy recommended the triangle design out of preference and he said it's very easy to get the settings.

What do you guys think?
