You have to enlarge the hole on the subframe where these would be installed... gives you way more toe adjustability.

And to answer your question... I don't know why he was able to get one side within specs and not the other.

And toe is adjusted from where the spring perch mounts to, not the camber arm
ok i guess i'll have to tell him to take off the toe bolt he put into the wrong hole and replace the stock toe bolt with the one that came with the SPC kit.

how much does the hole need to be enlarged ?

The stock toe bolt and stock camber bolt are essentially the same thing, so switching them back and forth isn't going to do anything... If he can not get toe back with in specs, is because there is no more adjustability to it. You would have to enlarge the hole the toe bolt mounts into and use a aftermarket bolt like the one pictured.


The one on the left is the aftermarket toe bolt, the one on the right is stock
