Crash/ Camber bolts

[garyc]

Hi All

Has anyone ever heard of crash boltsfor a Nova/ Vauxhall, I presume they are used to correct slight camber deviations after colisions. I know you can get the eccentric cam ones but I cant use them. I have seen this on an MR2 site and wonderred if you can get the or are listed on the Vauxhall EPC?

From what I can gather the MK1 bolts are cam typre MK are a wasted stem type bolt, does that sound correct?

[Stuart]

Right O, I'll pop down to the VW dealership some time then. I'll try the Mk2 golf ones first as it sounds like they are the wasted stem ones. I'll keep you posted. It sounds like BMW do something similar for e36 M3 too.
