Or a better question would be, why do the washers have to be static?

They don't freely spin, they turn only if you rotate the bolt. What is the reason for this?

you don't want them to freely spin, or else they would slip loose. They are designed so that the washers are held in place by the subframe which requires a decent amount of torque to moved the bolt, hence the need for a wrench to adjust. That way when they are tightened down, they will stay in place.

Nice to know why they are designed like that, thanks for letting me know.

Are the rear camber arms bent differently than the stock camber arms? Because we are still making them the same length as stock, which wouldn't change the camber?

I know how to install the toe bolts and camber arms, but I am more interested in the actual design of them.

Adjusting them to stock length will just get them in the ballpark of the OEM camber. The alignment shop will fix the camber from there

That makes sense, but they adjust it at another spot? They won't have to touch the camber arm adjustment again, right?

depending on how much camber adjustment needs to be done, they will shorten the camber arm length. There is still some adjustment using the stock eccentric bolts on the end of the camber arm

Silly question here, are the Ichiba/Eibach rear camber arms sold in pairs? I was checking a vendor's site for the SPC and he confirmed the price was for each arm. ($200+ total).

I've seen Ichiba/Eibach in the $140-$170 range and was wondering if that's for two arms or not.

Thanks.
