So just got the ride back from the shop, Basically told me this is the best they could get the rear, minus the toe, I told them to get it close to -1 they said they can adjust toe more if need be, just wanted to see how it looked to you guys. thanks! Also was going to go to my other shop to see...

Thanks!

No worries! So basically lift the rear end, loosen inner bolt (I have the diagram to show them) so it falls naturally, tighten the bolt back up then adjust camber and toe normally from there?

Perfect. thanks!

Question for @UNBROKEN you mentioned you need to dremel out the slots to get to -.5 in the rear. Is this the case? I want to make sure I'm telling my alignment shop what to expect. Thanks!

Pretty sure this is a scam be careful.

Thanks for the heads up, WaferTech's diagram he attached helped perfectly. Just waiting for the correct top hat bolts to finish putting everything together.

Oh man thanks very much for this! Huge help and confirmation!

Got the bump stop in, just needed some persuasion lol, just waiting for the dust boot then should be set to install everything. Thanks for the help guys!

Ahh I see! thanks for illustration. It looks like the bump stop gets pressed into the top hat as well? I have it upside down it looks like in my picture, for the life of me I tried pressing the bump stop into the top hat before I flipped it facing the way it is now and I could not get it to seat.

A little off topic but, I'm assuming this is the correct orientation so far? I'm just waiting for the dust shield. The bump stop just "floats"? Unable to really compare due to the old strut being on the ST.

Will do, thanks for the clarification!

That's what my thought process was, I'm going to go look at my current strut installed now and lift the boot more to see what the current cap looks like, if its not a holder for the bump stop or whatever ford says im probably going to just keep it on the steeda strut.

Correct, that's what I meant. thanks!

That's what I thought as well, I just found out ford uses them as a integrated bump stop (OEM Struts), I also forgot to mention the new struts are the steeda pro action struts if that makes a difference, I know they are re-badged OEM ST strut bodies. The research I'm doing is saying remove them.

I'm probably answering my own question but does the white strut body cap need to be removed before I put everything together? I looked at my OEMs and they have it installed too, I was under the assumption these were on here for shipping purposes?

Thanks for the info, that's great to hear!

I have my dampers about 8 clicks in, if I remember correctly I think you get 12 or 15 points of adjustment? its pretty firm so if I do hit something my wheels aren't slamming into my fenders lol, but it is a very comfortable ride, I'm pretty flush to the edge of the fender as is. Mine is also an...

I know its not the ST but I've had them on my 370Z for about 7-8 years with no issues. You can even do custom spring rates, at least that was an option on my Z back then.

Yeah I will I just wanted to see if its do-able with stockers due to the tire not being as wide as for example 305s on a 10.5 wheel compared to 285s on a 9 wheel. Just me overthinking is all. I haven't really looked to see if anyone is doing the -.5 camber adjustment in the rear with stock...
