Whiteline Camber bolts question (KCA416) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I have a set of Whiteline Camber bolts (KCA416), and I was wondering if they will replace the bottom strut bolt as well as the top? I tried to install them in the bottom and they seemed to be larger, they would not go in on the bottom mount. I was out of time, so I didn't get to check to see if they would go in the top mount. Has anyone else experienced this?

from what I remember, the top bolt is a 16mm, the bottom is a 14mm. Your KCA416 are 16mm so they should only fit the top holes.

Mine are mounted in the top holes.

how much more camber can the bolt get you? thanks

Not4off · 03-08-2013, 01:15 AM

I installed camber bolts, then had car aligned. Max camber that I could get was -1.0

Not great, but better than stock.

Did anyone with the whiteline bolt KCA416 have a hard time trying to tighten the nut? I could not get the nut to tighten down far enough. I tried the other nut and the same issue. Thanks.

use impact, they are indeed tight threaded

Red Barchetta · 04-01-2013, 12:38 PM

Thank you. I will try it again this weekend.

make sure you hold the bolt with a wrench so you dont loose your settings, Always good to get a proper alignement to make it all set right

I ended up with -1 3/8 on both sides in the front, but with RaceCompEngineering springs on the factory struts.

I had the bolt pointed with the tab towards the strut with a wrench. However I did not have a deep socket for the nut and was trying to get it with a crescent wrench but having a tough go at it. Was afraid of cross threading and put the old camber bolt on since its my daily driver. Broke down today and ordered a cordless impact wrench. Thanks for help.
