OK, so I'm about 90% through the install of the front suspension half of the FRPP track pack kit and have had a chance to really see what's what in the front end. I know people have said there's no caster adjustment with our frt suspension, but I don't see how there's any camber adjustment either. The three studs of the top of the strut poke up through the tower, and that's where the adjustment would be, I would think, but those holes don't have any play in them from what I can see. It also didn't look like the rear camber arm had adjustment or concentric for adjustment. What am I missing?

Doing it over again I'd probably go ahead and get some camber plates up front just so there's *some* adjustment. I did buy the camber bolts everyone references, but they are substantially smaller than the factory strut to spindle bolts. Those factory strut bolts are beefy. Got a picture of them side by side, but haven't uploaded pics yet.

Once you change from OEM suspension or track your car. You will need to get camber plates, In my opinion, I would stay away from those smaller strut bolts for adjustment.

Edit to add.. Isn't the FRPP Track pack kit the same as what comes on the GT PP cars with the exception of the 1"lower springs?

No. Sway bars, shocks/struts and springs are all different. Track pack also includes a toe link to knuckle bearing. The Track Pack front sway bar is massive, but surprisingly only 1lb heavier than the stock PP bar.

Ford indicated that the top strut to spindle bolt hole could be elongated out to allow some camber adjustment. There used to be a TSB on that. Most after-market struts come with the elongated upper hole. When I swapped to my new struts, I pushed the spindle in as far as the slot would allow and torqued it down. That gave me about -2.5* camber.
