Strut camber bolts
So I had a wheel that was clearly way off on camber from before I got the car. I figured I should be able to get it at least closer than it was. The freaking bolts were froze to the knuckle BAD. I used everything I could think of to break them lose. Even a 3lb sledge wouldn't move the bastards. I ended up drilling them out.
The reason I made this post though is because of the replacement bolt I was given. The stock upper strut bolt has a camed washer welded to it to make the camber adjustment. NAPA gave me a bolt that had basically a cam lobe on it that goes in the bolt hole. It is shit compared to the factory bolt IMO. Anyone else run int this ?

Buy a new OEM one if you're not happy with the NAPA one. A lot of people run that style cammed bolt with no issues though.

Yeah I have the napa one in it now and dont like it. I will go OEM.

I wonder if every aftermarket store sells that kind of bolt. I'd imagine they stock a generic replacement, so we get stuck with something that might not even support the weight of our piggies, lol.

LOL. Yeah its not nearly as strong as the OEM bolt.

Get an OEM. Seriously. Nice new bolts are, well, nice.
