Will the fc camber plates fit the fb struts? I don't realy want to pull the struts and have them turned down to 5/8". Im not finding much info them.

it might depend on the strut. i'm using the BZ1086 tokico and the FC sliders went right on like it was made for it.

the strut top bolt pattern is different between FC and SA/FB, so you need to redrill and or slot things

ive never checked em with the stock strut top, its a race car. i just had to replace everything except the top camber plate, cause its a race car.

they do use a little bushing, so maybe you don't need it, or can use a different one?

err wait are you using FC struts? or FB?

Most, if not all, camber plates on the market use the 5/8" ID bearing. The reason j9fd3s' fit was the use of the BZ1086 inserts. They are a smaller shaft diameter where the bearing sits.
