it's the two 14 MM bolts that hold on the upper control arm. you can't miss it.

depends how negative your camber is. for me with a 3" drop i used 3-4 washers per bolt. theres no real way to tell how perfect it is besides eyeballing it.

buy a bunch of washers and test it out. I used a 3 washers per bolt for a 2.5 inch drop. Also i didn't have to replace the bolt. Just use the stock bolts and add washers.

true. you can also place a leveler against the wheel, but again it's still pretty much eye balling.
