well not exactly sure which ones are seized for you buy a highly suggest buying all new bolts from the dealership... and if your luckly and the others come out fine then just take the extra bolts back to the dealership and get your money back from them. that way you wont have much downtime waiting for some parts to come in to the dealership...

for the toe arms get the 4 bolts. and for the rear camber arms get the one bolt that holds it to the spindle. and if you have any doubt about your LCA bolts then id buy those also. 6 total on each side. but since you just swapped suspensions i wouldnt think those bolts you already removed would be seized.

stock arm pictured. oddly enough i never took a good picture of the skunk2 camber kits on. but shows ya the bolt ya might need if it is seized. the top 2 bolts are worry free.

right click/ view image/ look at web adress and remove the ending letters until you have the jpg at the end and then add the IMG code.
OR simply create a FREE photobucket.com account and simply upload and click copy and paste the IMG link

O OK i get it... you have the koni yellows and the Stech springs so your probably using the lower perches so your alot lower than my standard stech drop.


so your controls arms are posibly bent but if they are its very minor... you just need some rear camber arms to fix the rear camber, and then just replace the toe arms either with stock arms or some aftermarket adjustable ones. i would go with adjustable myself.


have fun cutting out the toe arms. they are a PITA and takes time to slice them out.

well with your winder aftermarket wheels it all depends on the offset of the wheels.
but most likely you have to roll your fender lips

i had to roll my old 99s quite a bit to clear with my drop. otherwise go back to alignment place and ask them to give you more negative camber to clear. you dont want to trash your tires. and that sharp fender lip is a hot knife and your tires are butter!
