not sure on the fronts, i think you change the top one up front too, it will get the most movement in the right direction i'd think.

All you do is make your strut to knuckle holes oblong. I might have missed it but what were your suspension mods? If your not slammed all the way you should max only need 4 bolts for the whole car. Its also possible the shop didn't try to adjust the rear lateral arms

the fronts,Originally Posted by andremike
specified range
camber between -1.4 -0.4
caster between 2.5 3.6
toe between -0.03 0.08
for the rears
specified range is
camber,between -1.4 -04
toe between -0.03 in 0.08 in
it looks like your out 0.4 on the rears your whole alignment is way off too.
so as long as your car is set up with in those ranges your golden.

old bolts will come out, take the nut off, then hit the threaded end with a mallet or block of wood and a hammer so you dont mushroom the end of the bolt. dont be afraid to hit them rather hard.

So I can get by on these bolts. And its not worth chaning the struts to fix the problem?
Are the +\- 1deg bolt enough then?
I hope the alighment people don't complain that I put the bolts on myself.
Can you tell me is the top or bottowm. Or asI suggested above

push each corner of your car down hard as far down as it will go, then let it bounce up, if it bounces 3 times then stops moving your struts are shot.
if it stops in one bounce, or a bit more, then they are good still and those bolts are way cheaper then new quick struts.

missed your last part, looks like the 1 deg camber bolt would do the trick for all 4 corners. they zero out as well.

Ok thanks. In case you didn't see it... which bolt am I removing top or bottom? And is it different per front or rear?
I'd order the bolts online but I would like to resolve this, this weekend. So I need to find them locally
10-08-2013
im pretty sure you replace the top bolt, front and back.
10-08-2013
I don't know what I would do without you guys... thanks so much...

Omg.. just got the car back and what a difference....when he pulled the car around I can see the diffence in the wheels. They look straight now.... the stance is noticably diffetence.. the ride seems much quieter... the new tires I put are now the right size..
10-09-2013

10-10-2013

Plus I was able to get thwm to take off another 50.00
