Crash Bolts

Has anyone used the carsh bolts after lowering their car to help get rid of the negative camber and inner tire wear.

How was it and did it do the trick?

I am about to change my spring pads back to #3 as i find the dips in LA have killed my front bumper

yeah...

It definitely helped my situation. H&R's with Koni's, LOTS of negative camber. Better now, still not perfect. Worth the effort.

Just remember thats once you drill the holes bigger to fit the washer for the bolt you cant go back to stock. Once the hole is made bigger the washer will only fit one way so if you ever go back to stock you'll have to much positive camber. Not worth in my opinion unless you go with the full kit which allow you full versatility.

Do you recall how many bolts it was per side in the front? Is it 2 bolts?
