Camber Adjustable Coilovers

Post by Munki »

Last year I bought a set of coilovers for my car and I have only just recently gone to fit them. Now I know you can get camber bolts to adjust stock suspension but my front coilovers have a slotted top hole for the hub. Now the question I need answering is, do I need to purchase camber bolts to go with my coilovers or do I simply have to set the camber up manually with the stock hub bolts?

Why is nothing ever simples?!

just use your standard bolts, but make sure you pull the hub out while tightening up the bolts, and you will have to be carefull with the gap you get between your coilover and your tyre wall, as this is very small such as 5-10mm even with vauxhall rims.

Well I don't want to loose all my neg camber, I pulled the hub all the way out and there's no way it could have been driven haha! I have managed to get the wheels straightISH but Im waiting on my rims to come back form banding to get it set up properly. I just need to know If camber bolts are needed for correct adjustment or my mate with his tracking/camber gear is going to have to do it manually?
