Whoa- I was thinking about installing the factory eccentric bolts in my lower control arms when I do my bushings and ball joints since my car is an earlier production and does NOT have any adjustment points presently (I'm significantly lowered and need to match the camber L + R) and it appears to be nothing more than an in and out procedure.


What's the catch? I don't want to mess up the subframe?
