Front Camber Bolts / Alignment Question - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hello,

Do I have to realign my car after installing front camber bolts? even with max settings?

Thanks

Yes because your cross camber will most likely be off, i.e. left and right camber do not match.

And it will change your front toe replacing these bolts.

Short answer you need an alignment.

With just the front camber bolts what is max -ve number u all can get?

Thanks alot. I think I'm gonna get alignment after I install both front bolts and coils.

Silly question but....once installed do you immediately get say -1.0 camber? Or does it have to be adjusted (with alignment tools) to achieve the desired camber?

If the alignment work was carried out at a workshop, do they remove the wheels to adjust, then re-install wheels to check/measure again?
