Hi guys,

I went to get an alignment today and the techs told me that all they could get for the Front Right camber was -1.6. They said that it cant be adjusted but I told them that it could be, so I asked them to switch the camber bolt. They said that wouldn't work and said that -1.6 was the best they could do.

Oddly, the driver's side could be adjusted back to -1.

After getting home, I took off my front right wheel to see the orientation of the bolt but I am confused as to the proper directionality. Could you guys please tell me which way the bolt needs to face to add positive camber so I can go back and get aligned to stock specifications?

Also, I am on stock springs but have the whiteline RCK on because I was previously lowered on eibachs. Should this cause the camber issue?

The camber adjustment bolt is the top bolt with a marked triangle on the bolt head. With the triangle pointed towards the engine you are at about -1 degree of camber. If the triangle on the bolt is facing the wheel side, you are at about -2 degrees of camber.

Awesome, thanks for your reply! I figured it out. My bolts have red dots on them instead but when I rotated them...BLAM back to -1.
