I put in an Eibach pro kit in my 2002 mustang about 6 months ago. In the last month when ever I go over small bumps or potholes there is a noise that sounds like my front right strut is blown. So today I went down to Ford to have them check up on the struts because they would replace them under warrantee. But after 2 hours of labor they found out that it was my caster camber plates that were making the noise. I was wondering what in my Ford Racing caster camber kit could be causing this noise and how can I fix it?

I had some mm camber caster plates and they started making noise. The adj for the caster came loose and when I came to a stop or took off the left front strut would make a pop sound. [patriot]

Plates are loose, they do that often.

Your cc plates probably need to be shimed....The Steeda ones I have come with different shims because of the different length of different struts....I would check to see if you have to shim your cc plates...Make sure that you have the correct alignment specs and that the bolts, especially the top strut bolts, are all tight!...
