I am in the process of doing a whole bunch of new parts install one of them is the Maximum Motorsports Caster camber kit. I own a 1985 Mustang SVO. I am installing new Koni's as well along with new reworked lower control arms and a complete urethane bushing kit. My question for you Maximum Motorsports is how do I get the Dust Boot to mount with your Caster camber kit? Do I need to buy a different dust boot? Is there a different Bump Stop that the dust boot mounts to? According to your instructions the dust boot is supposed to zip tie to the bump stop,, but the bump stop in the Caster camber kit is smaller diameter then the bump stop on the bottom of the original mount and will not grab the dust boot unless you force it deep inside.

I ditched the dust shield when I installed my CC plates.

The MMCC7989 c/c plates are designed to use the non onion head strut mount dust boots. SVO Mustangs came with onion head strut mounts. These all used a dust boot which is not a straight tube. The dust boot has an extreme taper over its length. You need to get a pair of dust boots from any 1986-2004 Mustang except a 2003-04 Cobra. Earlier cars will also work as long as the dust boots are straight tubes.
