so i bought a pair of the eibach front alignment bolts from tirerack.com and im trying to figure out how to install them.... i know that it replaces the top strut to spindle bolt.... but thats about it... can anybody help me clear this up? heres a pic from the site
THOSE CAMBER KITS ARE MADE BY SPECIALTY PRODUCTS...I HAVE THE SAME ONES ON MY "TOASTER"..THERE EASY TO INSTALL ...THE GO ON THE TOP STRUT HOLES...JUST INSTALL THEM THE SAME WAY U TOOK THE OLD STOCK BOLTS OUT .JUST MAKE SURE THAT WHEN U DO PUT THEM IN THAT U GET THE CAR ALIGNED RIGHT AWAY CAUSE THE CAMBER IS GOINGTO BE WAY OFF..GOOD LUCK..
if you look at the lobes on the bolts, you can see that there are really 2 positions.. the head of the bolt should have some mark on it to denote +camber, like a tick mark, if not, get some chalk or white out, and make a mark on the head that corresponds to the +camber side of the lobe. now, when installing them into the top strut bolt hole, you can either install with the mark facing the strut, or away, depending on your camber needs. adjustments are made by turning the bolt 180 degrees, using the lobe position to set the camber + or -.
I'M LOOKING AT THE INSTALLION INSTRUTCIONS RIGHT NOW..DOESNT MATTER WHICH WAY U INSTALL THEM..CAMBER WILL STILL BE ADJUSTED PLUS OR MINUS 1.75 DEGREES....GO TO...WWW.SPECPROD.COM..IF U NEED THE INSTALL INSTUCTIONS..THE SPC PART NUMBER IS..81260...

k now i installed them yesterday and honestly dont notice any different at all.... does it matter how you install the bolt? i noticed that the has a lopsided lobe on the shaft of the bolt... i never thought two bolts could end up being such a pain
DID U INSTALL THEM ON THE TOP HOLES OR THE BOTTOM????....WHEN U GET IT ALIGNED..THE LOOSEN THE TOP AND BOTTOM BOLTS AND USE THE AMBER KIT TO ADJUST CAMBER....THEN THEY GO BACK AND TIGHTEN THEN TOP NAND BOTTOM BOTLS BACKUP...I HAVE USED THAT SAME CAMBER KIT IN TONS OF XB'S AND ALSO THE NEWER HONDAS...
