CAMBER ADJUSTING BOLTS

To increase camber adjusting capability, the steering knuckle set bolts can be replaced with new camber adjusting bolts. These new camber adjusting bolts allow for greater movement between the steering knuckle and shock absorber assembly.





NOTE:
Vehicles which are out of alignment specifications due to a collision or worn out parts, should be inspected for damage and/or worn out parts before performing an alignment.

To change camber, install the adjusting bolt in the lower steering knuckle mounting hole. If a camber change greater than 0.75° is required, camber bolts can be installed in both upper and lower steering knuckle holes for camber changes up to 1.50°. See Camber Adjusting Bolt Table for model, part number and bolt selection.
