DO POINT OUT THAT THESE BOLTS (2 CAMBER AND 2 CASTER) ARE ONLY AVAILABLE FOR FRONT AND ARE ONE POSITION – NOT PRECISELY ADJUSTABLE!


Only allowing minimal .3 of one degree (1/8 of an inch – 3mm). To change means labour intensive disassembly each time.


While K-MAC front kit – replaces not just the bolts but each entire bush (which are the 4 front highest wearing bushes).


Along with the unique K-MAC patented design allowing precise single wrench adjustment accurately under load direct on alignment rack (with 3 times the adjustment range on W202 models).


Allowing precise (ongoing) adjustments to correctly resolve premature tire wear, steering pull – also essential if altering height, fitting wide tires/wheels, load carrying or curb knock damage.


Similar rear Camber kit (OEM – only Toe adjustment) which also includes extra Toe adjustment to compensate for the rear camber facility. Bush extraction/insertion tools supplied with both front and rear kits.
