2002 9-3 Front camber bolt sourcing

[Kazamario]

GA SW,

Does anyone know where I can get front camber bolts for my 9-3? I dropped my 9-3 1.2 inches when I put it on Koni shocks and Eibach springs. I found the rear shims, but where can I source the front camber bolts from?

Thanks for your time,

Mario

Are the bolts 12mm?

The Saturn L series used the same GM2900 platform as the Saab 9-3 and the 2900 is an improved J platform, so your local NAPA store should have the bolts you're looking for in stock.

looking at EPC for YOUR model, find any camber something on front suspension, and starting with the same build up than 9-5 suspensions the camber can't be adjusted on these cars. so have you confusing some names ?

@lowrider - I don't know to be honest, that's why I'm asking!

@Digger - Long time, hope you're doing good! DO you have a part # for me, and is Swiss correct in that camber isn't a thing on my 02 9-3?

@Swiss - I know that stock, camber is not adjustable on my 02 9-3. However, I heard that there were after market bolts that allowed camber to be adjusted on my 9-3.

Thanks for the quick replies guys, driving this thing sucks now, it pulls hard to the right and I already had it aligned twice. I'm getting the rear shims put in so hopefully that will help enough for now. Never would've dropped it if I knew it was going to be nigh impossible to re-align.

From what I have found online and what Digger found this is what you should need

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/122489101927

If your car goes on the side it's not a camber issue but a toe-in issue if your wheels aren't both parrallel ? you feel an horrible feeling
My advice go to a workshop equipped with an electronic bench they will adjusts ALL the wheels because if the rear are slightly bad aligned they influence the front and general handling, I have in the past mine with at each tires change a difficult handling, using tires in few Kms, winters and summers, saying to my mech he trying to do with no success because he haven't the right tools. thinking after doing a struts replacement the bushings or other part are worn and worried me about the price and time for doing them.
So going to a tires swapper shop and they explained to me the factors involved and doing excellent job, after that no mores bad handling no more tires unusual worn.
