I've got the whole lowering spring + rims deal on my car. I figure I need to have my car aligned. I bought these "14 mm Camber Bolts" but I'm not sure where to install them.

I have an idea where to put them, because I can only think of a couple places where sticking in these camber bolts would affect camber. However, I'd like to know for sure before I stick them in there.

An alignment shop said it would cost $50 in addition to the alignment charges to install the bolts. $50 to remove some bolts, and put these in. I figured I'd try myself first.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks guys!

Well on my MR2 they were installed in either of the two strut bolt locations. I got adjustable ones, not specific sized ones that are set. (add 1/2 degree camber) etc. I used the bottom location on the strut so that it gave the most adjustment.

They shouldn't charge to install that bolt, it would take at most 4 minutes to do all 4 bolts. Assuming you are replacing a bolt in each of the struts.

Why do you want to change your camber setting?
