Question Rear Upper Cam bolts....

I remember reading something on Stus site about being able to adjust the pinon with these cam bolts.

I currently have Tomken rear uppers, which I think are slightly longer than stock, and I was wondering when I install my RE Hack and Tap if adding cam bolts would be enough to adj the pinion angle.

Thanks,

Justin

Avoid the cam bolts. The only decent ones are the Mopar and they go for 65-70 dollars. The cheaper RE's will spin and are junk. I had the Mopars and they worked ok with the stock slip yoke but they sure got in the way when I went to adjustable rear upper arms. They are now welded in place

Sell the Tomkens and use the proceeds + the 70 bucks you would have paid for the cams for a nice set of RE uppers. You will be much better off in the long run.

Justin,

I have a pair of RE rear upper adjustable control arms I will make a heck of a deal on if you are interested. Freshly rebuilt too. Let me know.
