We've been working on a set of caster/camber plates for the S197 for a little while now. We're hoping to roll them out with an upgraded thrust bearing over stock, and a 3/4" inner strut bearing. This is not a finalized design, but I'm very hopeful that they will end up close to this!

Please make one that will accept a 2.5" coil over spring. Had to run Ground Control plates with my coilovers. Have to pull them off to adjust camber. Stupidest design I have ever seen.

Are these going to be fully bolt-on, or do I need to utilize parts from a stock strut mount?

No plans to make a set for 2.5" coilover springs, but it may not be too difficult for us to make a set in the future.

The only part that will be reused is the isolator. As it stands right now, these plates are only for the 05-10 GT/V6 07-14 GT500 style struts. We do have plans to do an 11-14 specific set as well, but wanted to get this version out first since more people use that strut setup.

I'd be very interested if you ever put these into production. I'm getting tired of the GT500 mounts creaking.

This is GREAT news! I'm actually looking at picking up the BMR SP065 springs and adjustable panhard bar for my '05 GT very soon. Would love to score the C/C plate as well.

When these are made available I will be the first in line to buy them. They compliment my full BMR kit nicely. Nice work gents!

Bout damn time! Saw yall got em out for the S550's too huh... Was just thinking the other day how it was that BMR didn't have their own set of CC plates for being such a big suspension company. Awesome stuff fellas! :thumb:

Oh ok I see how it is. You make CC plates for Kelly's car and now for the Gen1 S197 so you do a Coyote swap so you can have so CC plates plus the coyote engine and leave us Gen 2 folks in the dark. I see what you're doing.
