Hmm wouldnt camber bolts give you more adjustability then these the price difference seems minor

I would rather have the stronger factory bolts, it they were to fail that's some major damage

Does that happen or being cautious?

I'm just being cautious, I'm sure the adj camber bolts are fine for street duty, definitely would stay away from the china camber bolts.

Well id use them for AutoX and the track. AS stock doesnt allow or plates. But my plan to use the rear wheels on the front so I can rotate tires on the track might move me out of AS anyway.

I just installed them on my R, I opened the upper hole in the strut to 11/16" (+1/16) the max I could get out of it was 1.8 degrees

I had my shop turn down the knurl on the stock bolts and I am getting 1.95 on the right and 2.05 on the left. You don't have to be worried about the bolt loosing strength as the week point on the bolt is the root diameter of the thread.

Sorry im being dumb. What does turn down the knurl mean?

 

[Conedodger]

Sorry, shop talk. It's slang for reducing the diameter of a part. Usually implying the use of a lathe.

Chuck the bolt up in a lathe, and turning down (cut) the knurls off underneath the flanged of the bolt, making it smaller in diameter for more adjustment.
I just opened up the bolt hole to do the same thing.

 

[Conedodger]

I didn't want to mess with the Magnaride shock. Because...warranty.

Conedodger, MACH4.6,

Conedodger,

None so far, the place I took it to specializes in alignments, we talked about
how I wanted the car to handle and he set it up, said everything came out good
and we will see how the car handles and go from there.

Is the FP rear wheel alignment achieved with the stock hardware???

 

[Conedodger]

They cut .040" off each bolt (4x). No issues. The bolts need to be torqued to 180 ft lbs.
