Camber Kit install V70-XC70 2000

Hi,

I just got my camber kit for my 2000XC. THis car eats tires and I am ready to give this a try. My hope is that it will help the wear I am getting on the outdie egde of the front tires.

Anyway, I was thinking this deal would be just a bolt like thing to replace the upper bolt on the strut mount. It is not. It is two bolts, a plate, a pin and a nylonish peg deal.

I think I can tell which bolt will go in the upper and lower, but the other stuff? I dont have a clue. Please help with install.

Thanks,
Kele'

Camber Kit install...............only if doing an alignment V70-XC70 2000

The strut must be removed and the upper hole drilled out to use that kit BUT must be done while doing an alignment to get camber right. One shouldn't really even need that kit unless the car's been in an accident and something is slightly bent. Camber can normally be adjusted enough to get it in range w/o that kit.
Do you know that camber is off by alignment specs?
