So, the adjustable camber bolts you can get for the front struts…of which mine had no instructions included and I have never used these before.

Do you install the cam bolt in the upper or lower mounting hole on the strut on these trucks?
Do you install the tab washer at the bolt head or next to the nut?
Do you install the tab angled in towards the strut or out away from the strut?

Upper hole, I believe the tabbed washer gets installed on the bolt head side and tab points in (towards the strut) for negative camber and out (away from the strut) for positive camber if they are SPC or I believe Eibach

Yes.



No seriously without pics its hard to help. Alot of these things are universally engineered. Performance modifications are something you really have to think about A: doing and B: installing. Most things only go together one way correctly. I suggest laying out the parts and the components you want to modify and think about what it is supposed to do. Then the solution should present itself. If not go to youtube.

Not sure why photos are needed MavMan?
Just hoping to confirm in which order and location these camber adjusting bolts get installed. Seems really straight forward except that they fit in both locations and can go together in either order and orientation.

It doesn't need to be that complicated, the SPC and the Eibach I believe are the same products just rebranded for Eibach.

Now it’s simple - exactly what I’ve been searching for!
Thanks much for linking install instructions @NoVaJimmy

If link is dead down the road:
-Upper bolt hole
-Tabbed washer at the bolt head
-Tab angled away from strut and 180° from cam lobe

Just saw you have the Eibach. I have the printed instructions and would have posted them for you here. But I see you found them online. Good deal.

Think the large tab is angled towards the strut for negative camber which is typically what you'd want

Tab angled away from strut meaning ‘sticking out’. You can also install it angled in almost like a locking washer. If you get what I’m getting at - but once you see the instructions it pretty freaking clear.
Thanks again for that link.

Don't think you can install it "in" as a "locking washer", that's not how these work or what that tab is designed for. The tab is always out, I'm saying, the tab itself is either pointing "in" towards the strut body (for negative camber) or out away from the strut body for positive camber.

No argument on that - what I was trying to get across is that you CAN install them as a locking tab washer (in blue) hooked over the edge of the lower strut mount To keep them from rotating once torqued. Especially when sitting there wondering where your instructions are.

The grip teeth wouldnt make sense if they were pointed up and missing the bolt head as in the upper blue depiction. It could be done but would be weird. This is assuming the proportions in this diagram are accurate.
