Eccentric Bolts Or Not? Did some of you used eccentrics bolts to realign your Car.Is it really Necessary?
Are those Bolts just Good to make the Camber Better or do they have an effect on the Height To?
My cars As H&Rs and 1 Pads ,,, and cant figure out why its not as low as Supposed.Thanks

they have absolutely nothing to do with height. but if u wanna go that low, it helps maintain proper camber. however, it probably is more useful in the back. the front is a double wishbone setup, camber is usually less of an issue as the inherent design minimizes camber changes when the suspension is compressed. excessive lowering leading to camber problems is usually associated with mcpherson type struts.

There are new camber arms out for the Mercedes I believe, if you check ebay type in "Mercedes Camber Arm" and you will see a bunch of them for sale.

Hope that helps.
