Rear arm locating washers

[losh1971]

Anyone know what the two locating washers on the rear suspension arms are called. One of mine is missing the other is squashed. They affect the rear camber so really need to be fitted. I just can't find them online likely because I don't know the proper name. If anyone has a part number that would be even better as I might be able to order them from Holden. I would go to Holden with photo but they shut at 4.30 and are too far away to get there in my lunchbreak otherwise I would show them a photo.

I think this is where they go.

Here is a sample. They normally have a collar that helps the bolt to centralise in the arm hole.

Eccentric bolts. Pretty likely you won't be able to buy the washers by themselves and will have to buy the entire bolt. Some companies will refer to them as camber bolts, so just make sure you don't get them mixed up with the aftermarket ones you can buy for the front struts.

Rear lower control arm bolts may be another.

Found a listing from Fulcrum to give you an example: https://fulcrumsuspensions.com.au/camber-adjusting-bolt-9986-kca448-166506.html

Also you shouldn’t leave your brake calliper hanging off the brake hose like that.

Are you doing shocks or bushes or what are you up to?

Thanks heaps. Happy to buy the bolts as well.

When fitting the diff these were missing or damaged and they are required to help with rear alignment. Not replacing anything else at the back.

I was also wondering why it was lifted by the sills and not the recommended hoist locations. I know it was the mechanic that lifted it up that way (and not Losh).

The sills are fitted with skirts, so if you lifted it by the sills, you'd destroy the side skirts
