Just because I'm feeling extra helpful and I have one of the camber bolts sitting around...

Notice the shoulder on the shank as well as the arrow on the head. If you aren't aware of them, it would be very easy to get them installed in different directions.

What is specifically, bad about the cushioned plates? I had camber plates on my DSM (GC and JIC) and wasn't happy with the harshness of ride and noise. So to me, cushioned design sounds perfect!

But I also know that these things do not always work out as they should .

At $100 per set, they just might be worth the gamble!

From what I read around the forums, the Noltec cushioned plates don't have the same range of adjustment as the solid plates. If you're not planning to go past ~2.5 degrees of camber (IIRC) you should be fine with the cushioned ones.

Keep in mind this is second-hand info, but info on the Noltec plates is hard to find.

That makes perfect sence. I can see how elastomer would take-up more space and not allow as wide range of adjustment. But I can life with that. I am glad it isn't something else.

As I said before, it is well worth the $100 gamble!
