These components are adjustable hardware designed to replace the factory upper strut mounts in vehicles of a specific chassis designation, produced by Ford from 1979 to 1993. They facilitate precise alignment adjustments of the front suspension, specifically caster and camber angles. For example, a vehicle owner might install them to correct alignment issues after lowering the ride height or to optimize handling for performance driving.
Correcting these angles offers improved tire wear, enhanced steering response, and greater stability, particularly in high-performance driving scenarios. Historically, these adjustments were limited or unavailable with the factory suspension, making aftermarket solutions essential for enthusiasts seeking to fine-tune their vehicle’s handling characteristics. They allow for a greater range of adjustability than stock components, catering to specific track or street driving preferences.
