My driver’s side plate clunks like crazy on just about every road surface (smoother or otherwise)
any idea why? Video: https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared...HD3VJdEGclAsRt |

Very common is also the top nut not being tight enough. Apply some loctite before installation. |

In order to properly use Vorshlag camber plates, you must choose the option below to include Vorshlag upper spring perches that match your strut brand and spring type. Vorshlag camber/caster plates are designed to be compatible with 2.5”, 2.25" and 60mm “coilover” style springs, OEM (stock) style springs and all strut types. We make numerous variations of this plate and accompanying perches to work with your set-up. The Vorshlag upper perches allow us to add a sealed radial bearing that isolates the spherical bearing in the camber plate from radial turning loads of of the strut shaft during steering inputs. This is part of why our plates last the lifetime of the car!
*Compatible with 2.5", 2.25" and 60 mm coilover springs, factory springs, OEM Style Lowering springs and all struts. *No need to change camber plates when switching from regular springs to coilovers - some companies sell you two totally different camber plates for coilover springs and factory style springs. *Installs with basic hand tools, no chassis modifications required. *Plates are designed specifically for BMW E82 & E87 (1 series) and E90 or E92 (3 series) chassis (except E90/E92 M3). *Caster & Camber are independently adjustable. *Camber is easily adjustable at the track from the engine compartment with simple (metric) hand tools. No need to reach inside the wheel well with a wrench to tighten. *The spherical bearing used in the Vorshlag camber plate is the largest used in any BMW camber plate on the market. The result is much better durability and wear characteristics than the undersized bearings used in our competitors' plates. *Designed for maximum suspension travel (bump travel). More than an inch more strut travel than some of our competitors' designs. *Alloy steel bearing holder - Tough as a German Tank! *Aluminum alloy main plate for lighter weight, engraved and fully anodized *All components plated or anodized for maximum corrosion resistance and long life. *Vorshlag Upper spring perches required. Coilover perches included in the basic price, but OEM style perches are extra (see "Spring Perch" drop down option menu, below). *Maximum negative camber setting depends on caster setting, ride height, and is ultimately limited by the strut tower opening on these chassis. The E82/90/92 strut tower hole is more restrictive than previous generation BMWs. *Expect to get -2° to -3.5° max camber, depending on ride height. *New and improved .25" thick top ring (introduced Dec 2008) for increased clearance between Vorshlag long reach M12x1.5 strut top nut to factory (faux) strut brace. Improved low profile bolt ring for more clearance when used with OEM style perches. Available now! Camber plates starts at $525 |
