Default Ok, specs of the bolt and washer for rear camber correction

I can't get the specs from the kit i bought so i took the one from G2IC.com.

Here it is...

<U>Correcting Camber in Rear Wheels</U>

If you want to get rid of negative camber because it's eating your tires you can do this:

1- Jack up your Integra and remove the wheel.
2- There's an arm that attaches to the car right besides the gas tank when you look straight through the wheel well and it has two bolts attaching it to the car.
3- Remove these two bolts and insert metal washers between the arm and the car and reinstall again.
4- Number of washers or thickness depends on how low your car is dropped. Mine is dropped 2" in the back and I used (2) 1/16 washers at each bolt i.e. (4) washers for each wheel. If your car is dropped more you'll need more washers but have to get a longer bolt too. Good luck.
5- Camber correction for the fronts however requires purchasing a camber kit OR some really heavy duty modifications to the front fender OR bending the "spindles." (the last two are not good and not recommended)

The bolts should be M10 x 1.25 x 40 metric flange bolts (grade 10.9 hardened low-alloy steel)

careful not to remove too much camber. Negative camber isn't all bad . . .

Yes i agree with carlex.

Also it's suggested to not have more than 4 washers (1/16) per bolt for safety.
And remember to get extended bolts if you're doing more than 2 washers/bolt as mentioned above.
