- wheel alignment to be checked and adjusted as required after any suspension work.
All fasteners must be tensioned to manufacturer’s torque settings, unless new torque figures are
suggested.

2. Gain access to the front strut to knuckle bolts, remove upper bolt Lobe
and loosen lower bolt. Clean any dirt/rust from hole and both end

with the lobe on the bolt. Fit the bolt with the large tab and lobe
face towards the centre of the car this will give maximum camber
adjustment. Fit the nut onto the camber bolt and tighten to the Tab in Tab out
recommended torque (see above).

standard bolt, adjust as necessary by turning the bolt whilst holding
the tab washer in either the negative or positive position.
