Camber bolts

[ilovecorollale]

I am going to order some camber bolts and i just need to know what part number that will fit or replace a 19mm bolt on the strut mount. i saw some part number from ezcam xr camber bolts 81240, 81250,81260,81270,81280,81290 replaces stock size bolt 10mm,12mm, 14mm, 16mm, and 17mm...but my stock size bolt is 19mm and there's none to replace that?

I need your help and input on this.

Bolts are not measured by the bolt head diameter. I believe they are 12mm bolts (M12).
Front: MOOG #K90208
Rear: MOOG #9757

But i have heard that 12mm is way too small and loose and some would rather use like 16mm o 17mm.

Personally I prefer reaming out the strut hole and using the stock bolts. Any camber bolt is going to be smaller than the OEM bolt. That's how it allows for adjustment. The OEM bolt is a 12mm bolt so any camber bolt will be smaller than that. There again, I'm talking actual bolt diameter, not the bolt head (and socket size used).

The part numbers I posted are what Rockauto lists for our cars.

why do you need the camber bolts? i would try to avoid those as much as possible. they will work loose. i can not tell you how many people i know that have used them or aligned cars with them, to have them come loose. i dont recall anyone using loctite on them though might help.

if you need a little bit of camber to get your car back into spec, then slot the strut base. does not take much slotting to give you an extra 1-2 degrees of adjustment. if you need more than that i would suggest looking into some pillowball camber plates for the top of the struts.

I was going to get my car aligned because of the steering wheel...and plus i have lowered my car for almost a year on 14 inch steelies with the tires 175-65r14 that is now currently on a set of hx rims and the tires are still good with no camber wear at all. And i thought that since you lowered your car, you have to have camber kit/bolt installed before getting alignment.

And plus i am doing the alignment at big o tires for 99.99 bucks but i havent asked them if i needed the camber bolts install in order for them to do alignment.

not always will you need camber bolts for alignments on lowered cars. it depends on how far out of alignment an how low your car is.

also 99 bucks is kind of high. is there a tires plus in your town? they usually run about 65 or so for alignments. i know i used to work for them. for 99 at tires plus they offer a 3 year warranty on alignments. unlimited alignments for 3 years basically or the baller status package, lifetime alignments for about 160. plus i can vouch for how often they update their equipment, which is quite frequently.

well mine is lowered 1.9 front and 1.4 rear and like i said above...i havent had any camber wear at all...possibly very little wear but aint going to show for a long time.it's actually 89.99 for non lowered and 99.99 for lowered.

And nope no tires plus.
