I just called Michael back to give him the spring rates I wanted and in passing mentioned the camber plates and he said he should know something tomorrow on whether or not they're included with the rest of the package.

I'm holding out for an answer on the camber control ... without it, I'm going to have to back out as I already have the KONI's and Ground Control ready to go ... adding camber plates from BAT would finish my system out and avoid me having to sell this never-installed setup just to afford this one. However, if the camber plates are a reality, I might go through the trouble and eat the cost up front.

OK, got off the phone with Michael @ D2. Here is the Deal:
D2 currently doesn't have camber plates developed for our cars, BUT He can get it developed with only about a week added to the timeline if we can come up with a full stock suspension for them to model off of. If we get them this there is a very great possibility of the shorter shock body coming along with this.
Shipping will be paid for by D2 so all you have to do is be willing to part with your used suspension components.
I would do this, but my old suspension parts have been gone for years.
We need:
1 set stock springs Fr/Rr, one set struts Fr/Rr, one set of upper strut mounts Fr/Rr
I know there are differences in strut perch design and sping rate/coil diameter from throughout the model years. Does anybody know which combo would be compatible for all years?

Rear struts and springs are the same thing
Front struts and springs are matched by year, pre-98 struts mate only with pre-98 springs and post-98 struts mate with only post-98 springs. I believe The upper mounts did not change at all, someone can correct me if i'm wrong.

Brett (livinsvt) who put on my H&Rs and Konis a little while ago pointed this group buy out to me. I still have the stock suspension from my 1998.5 SVT. I would be willing to part with it to help you guys out with your situation. Just send me a PM or give me what I need to know to get the suspension shipped to D2.
