need help to figure out if these camber plates are for stock suspension
Thinking about getting these camber plates, seller says they are for stock but would trust more if someone else could confirm
Looking to have these hold me over a year until i get some coil overs next year which will require a different camber plate. |

Stock type thrust bearings on the bottom (one is flipped upside down for some reason) = for stock springs.
Might just have to verify the spherical bearing nut is the correct thread (M14x1.5), but it's likely it is.

Edit- After looking at things, seems like adjusting these is a huge pain in the ass and there are better designs out there which maybe I should just pay a little extra for. I know you dislike the GC plates but it would be nice to get a plate where when I get suspension next year I could just use the camber plate without having to buy a new one, is there any other camber plate I could do that appart from the GC? I am thinking of going with MCS coilovers next year. Last edited by MooMooM2; 02-28-2023 at 09:06 AM.. |

I was not sure if Vorshlag sold the lower bearing/slidding assembly separately. I guess I could just buy another one and the other one while keeping the top on the car, that makes sense. I just thought with the GC the thrust bearing assembly would probably be not crazy expensive but maybe its not (since as you mentioned on one of your videos they want $30 for a bolt) |

Looks like OE spring style from TCKR. Coilover style not use the OE bearings in your photo.
