Default Washer Trick Bolt Question

Was wondering are power tools necessary to remove the bolts to install the washers (for rear camber adjustment) or would normal socket wrench do the job?

Hope this is the corrct forum for my question

Are you talking about the bolts to adjust rear camber?

If you are, then all you need is a ratchet, extension and 14mm socket.

Kinda reminds me of a friend who used a 1/2" drive impact wrench to remove the oil drain bolt on his mom's Volvo. It ended up being a 1/16 scaled Exxon Valdez in the garage.

The bolts are probably 10mm thread size. Go to the hardware store and pick up some hardened M10 washers.
