    Hey does anyone know if Shelby aligns the front end after they install the "lowering" package on the new Shelbys? Or is set-up this way for improved cornering? Mine seems to have very noticeable camber when it's sitting on the garage floor.

    Did you ever get any feedback on this? My 07 GT has serious negative camber as you describe, the tires are wearing on the inside and the dealership says they cannot adjust it out because of the lowering springs.

    The guys over on Team Shelby have quite a lot of stuff on this issue posted. It looks like you may need camber bolts or camber plates installed to take the negative camber out. I'm going to check with Dennis at Tasca now.

    Good luck

    The camber bolts will help up to 2 degrees when placed in the top strut bolt hole. And an addition set of bolts maybe used for 4 degrees in both strut bolt holes. But if you need this much camber then something:doh:else is probably not correct.

    When I lowered my 07 GT500 with Ford Racing lowering springs all I did was have the toe corrected as I actually like a little negative camber.
