where do you adjust camber at (bolts)

I have read some alignment procedures and am thinking that I will do it myself, or at least get the camber and toe in close so I can drive it to a shop, and I am wanting to know which bolts you need to move when adjusting camber. Is it the ones on the upper or lower control arm? I kinda need to know pretty soon thanks.

If you look real close you can see the lower control arm bolt holes are slotted...there's your adjustment.

Re: where do you adjust camber at (bolts)

The lower control arm has two bolts where it attaches to the frame, both are slotted holes. The front bolt is the main camber, and the rear bolt is the main caster adjustment. Slide the front part in to increase camber, or out to decrease it (you may want to loosen up the caster bolt to get the camber to slide easier though, the adjustments are very course if you don't have the proper alignment tool.)

I'd definitely get it close as possible and then drive it to an alignment shop.
