Help!! SPC Toe Bolt to Short
Just put on my rear SPC camber arms and toe bolts and the toe bolts are to short. I think the reason is my car has Rear Active Steer and the mounting point for the rear midlink is different than a car without it. I think the mounting point is slightly wider. I had to leave off one of the cam washers in order to get it on. That will work for now but I need a longer bolt. I plan on calling SPC on monday.
Has anyone else had this issue and what did you do for a fix.

quite a while ago i installed the GTspec rear brace. Later on i got the spc bolt and it was too short. i had to take off the GTspec bar so it would fit. not sure if SPC made a longer bolt. All i needed was about a half inch longer and it would have ben fine.

I called SPC today and they are sending a bolt that is 10mm longer, cars with RAS do require a longer bolt. You could also use that bolt the solve your issue with the GT Spec bar

yeah that is good to know. wonder if they would do an exchange program....... not!!!!. it would be nice though to just send in the short ones and get the longer ones. 10mm should just cover the length i need.
so it took 5 days huh?! oh man, i have the same issue... i called them thursday morning, the guy i spoke to said he's goin to ship out the bolt on that day. so i should expect the bolts on monday? Damn, cant wait to install those bolts, my tires are getting bald already
anyways, did you noticed where did the bolts shipped out from?
