How do you adjust the SPC Toe Bolt?

I'm working on my install of my SPC rear camber/toe kit and was trying to figure this out. After elongating the hole for the toe bolt, how does the alignment shop adjust the toe? Do they loosen the bolt and turn the off-kilter washer so that the bolt moves back and forth?

I screwed up my install so far, thinking the bolts that came in the SPC package went on the camber kit.... doh! Tomorrow, I'm gonna have to remove those toe bolts and dremel the toe bolt attachment spot. I got lucky though, I almost started dremelling the spot where the camber rod bolted on! Yikes!

the factory toe bolts control toe on the arms where the spc rear camber arms are linked to. the spc toe bolts control toe on the spring bucket arm.

Cool. Thanks for replying. I guess my question is, HOW do you adjust it? Do you loosen that new toe bolt and move it left and right to align the toe?

Oh, and one more question. Did you guys use lock-tite on the camber arm bolts, or are they solid enough with what I can torque by hand?

you just loosen it, and turn it, the eccentric bolt then moves the location of the spring bucket, its exactly like stock so they'll know what to do, it just has more adjustability now. No loctite is needed for anything, just torque to specs and check after ~50mi
