    I'll buy the power flex bushing for my car too then, cheers for the link. Does that crowd sell the camber eccentric bolt/nut for that bushing / arm too?

    Thanks for the link.
    And here's the camber adjustment bolt for the upper arm, similar price, so assuming that's all the adjustment bolts needed, 2 on each side, that's £50 plus postage on a few bolts? I think I'll clean up the originals and re-use them, I'm guessing these can't be stretch or 1 time use only bolts cause of the fact they need to be loosened in order to make adjustments and retightened every time an alignment is done. I wonder does anyone make a cheaper alternative, seems crazy prices for a few bolts.

    Normally they seize inside the bushing so you can't get them out, you probably save few pounds by getting bolts from the dealer, but i prefer getting by post.

    How come there's 2 different size bolts for the upper in the link above of that part number. Are they different size depending on the side of the car or is there 2 camber bolts in the 1 arm and do I need to buy 2 of them kits to do both sides?

    Cheers for the cheaper bolts though

    Eccentric bolt is the inner side and the longer bolt of outer. The one in the link is for 1 upper control arm. Lower control arm bolts are different lenght as well. As you said you need to buy 2 kits for both sides.

    I bought the lower bolt kits, €41 posted, I'll hopefully be able to re-use the upper bolts otherwise it's starting to become an expensive job. The upper camber bolts hardly seize in their bushings do they?

    Just wondering what's the easiest / best way to go about replacing every single arm / bushing on the rear, is there any point in dropping the entire subframe and rear arms as a complete assembley, might be more work and disconnecting the brake lines, but it might be easier to replace all the arms with the assembly on the floor and refit as a whole. Or is it easier to just replace 1 arm at a time with it all still on the car. I'll be using a lift so access won't be a problem either way.
