Crash bolts if your holes are slotted. Camber bolts if they are not slotted.

Ok, I'll clarify, stock suspension wanting to add camber. Get OEM, or whiteline offerings. Leaning OEM *Crashbolt, but curious if anyone has used the whiteline bolt. The forums are full of info but so many saying one or the other. Mainly curious what people around town have used.

I am using the crash bolts with oem style aftermarket shocks/struts. I am getting -1.2 degrees in the front with just the crash bolts. I am considering adding the camber bolts by SPC as well so I can get a little bit more camber up front for autocross.

Reason I ask is because camber bolts don't do anything in slotted holes on aftermarket coilovers. They only work on OEM sized holes and get you a bit more camber than a regular crash bolt.

-1.2 for crash bolts. Might be able to pull off -1.5 to -1.7 with SPC camber bolts.

I hit -2 up front with slotted holes and the crash bolts, but barely.

I'm sorry - I would hate that... so what do you do? Special water proof seat covers like they have for kids beds? Line the seats with the puppy pads?

I have the day off, I may have plans in the evening though. I can do any time during the day though.

We have a blanket that is supposed to be for picnics, so basically one side is a tarp and the other is a blanket. She sits on the fabric side and it keeps the urine from getting into the seats. She used to be good in the car, but now she has lost her fun ride privileges. Now she only rides when absolutely necessary.



@Turkish You wouldn't happen to have the part number for the bolts? I'll probably find it in a few minutes searching but doesn't hurt to ask.

It won't throw off your alignment at all really. If you plan on any other suspension work, I'd hold off on the alignment and save your money. Camber bolts don't touch toe.

It's more being anal as well as wanting to make sure I can get things as even as possible across both sides of the car. More suspension won't be for months at this time. co-worker and I are doing some driver instruction in early august.

Outside of the lower hood, bumper, mirrors, and fenders, are there any other problem areas that you've noticed are extra susceptible to chips? I finally sold off my wife's old car so it's finally time to get all of the clear bra stuff done.
