Camber Bolts - A 202 330 01 18
I have 4 of these - A 202 330 01 18 (camber bolts) and I could not remembered why I ordered 4. I recently lowered my C43 with Eibach Prokit and I am wondering if I need all 4 camber bolts installed. I could only see 2 in the front. Do you have any images where I should install these camber bolts? Thanks much.

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.

I've measured the camber correction with these bolts(all 4 installed) ,they are only good to Hub-fender ~331mm which gives 1.20'' degrees front camber. anything lower you are going to want more adjustment.
