Janosh's S/C'd Mustang
Discussion
In the recent run up to C&M I noticed an occasional clunk from the front left in fast and bumpy corners..
With a little research and some man maths, I’ve ordered some uprated and adjustable Pedders top mounts. I’m assuming that the clunk is from a worn top mount bearing and the adjustable top mount plates will enable me to dial in the front camber which isn’t typically adjustable on Mustangs.

She sailed through another MOT earlier this week so I rewarded her with some BMR jacking rails.
With the amount of tinkering I’m doing, they’ll provide a solid jacking point anywhere along the sills and as a byproduct will apparently also improve chassis stiffness. Win win:
The only thing to note with installation is that the longer 'drivers side' rail is actually the passenger side for UK / RHD cars!

Today was finally the day that I tacked the camber plates.
Starting with this:
The only minor struggle was with the strut bolts which needed a good whack:
Before drilling out the strut towers to allow access to the adjusters:
To end up with this:
A shakedown and road test will have to wait till later this week… then I’ll need to find a decent geometry specialist near me to get it all setup!
