    Default Coilovers question

    I ve got some coilovers purley so I can slam it on my comps but as they come with a slotted hole for camber adjustment which I don't want would camber bolts sort the camber out until I can set it up when she's back on the road.

    Not sure what you're asking, but I would not run slotted holes AND camber bolts. Fit them all the way in or all the way out so they're roughly matched between sides.

    If you dont like the slots mate set it up how you want then weld a thick washer eather side to keep it fixed .
    If them slots shift at speed it doesnt only ad camber it will alter the steering potentionaly throwing you off the road.

    Just be mindful if your welding a shock it is full of compressed gas or oil...
