My rear Ichiba rear arms did the same thing. I was looking at the SPL camber arms since I have several SPL parts but the Wicked Tuning arms look intriguing.
Quick question, I thought the AM toe arms were for people with true style coilovers and replace the spring bucket. Why did you need different toe arms AND toe bolts??

The toe arms allow for even more adjustability I think it was worth spending the extra money. And yes when you go to coil overs some brands do eliminate the bucket usage but you have to pay to replace the arm itself. Other brands of coilovers actually still use the bucket.

So (3) parts are changed for alignment needs of the rear wheels. I hope you can help me understand the work plan by answering questions?
I will set up shock/ spring as "true coilover".
1) Can you clarify if I use the 'turnbuckle type toe arms' and those pull the radius to straighten the rear wheel; is it still needed to have the toe bolts with elongated slot modification for the 'lower control arm'?
2) Is the elongated slots what allows the lower control arm to radius with the toe arm?
3)Can the stock toe bolts be re-used with the elongated slot mod.?
Great rear suspension info and pics. Thanks for taking the time to pass on the knowledge.

Ok I have edited a couple of posts to try and answer the last few questions. In post 2 I added more comment. I also did the same in posts 4 and 5 to some of the pictures.

Mr Samster I sold the car last year I wanted more HP so I bought a Camaro SS the kid I sold to put coilovers dropped the car super low and not sure what he's done since. but I know he redid the alignment and I haven't heard from him since he called once about a window motor and since everything is covered under my name I think he is good to go. he may even be on this forum.
