Exclamation Camber Arms and no toe bolts?

Has anybody did this? Im about to install the camber arms and my toe bolts wont be here for 2 weeks. I have a lifetime alignment at a local place but im wondering how bad the toe will be after the camber arms are installed and alligned.

Springs are Eibach sportlines. My camber is really out of whack.

Is it possible to bring the toe back in speck without the toe bolts and just the camber arms installed? Is it driveable????


thanks -chris-

I run the Eibachs and have the set of SPC? adjustable traction bars and arms and my guy pulled in the align over 2 years ago with no toe bolt replacement. He told me to sell them and I did

ya, if you have the adjustable traction arms, you wont need the toe bolt like Eazzy said.

but it sounds like the OP only has the camber arms. - so your toe will be off, you will be fine for 2 weeks though....but you will need them.

Try it , you may not not need them, all of our cars seem to be a little different.

without the toe bolts, you will limit your positive camber correction quite a bit, since the toe gets worse as you decrease the negative camber.
