camber bolt for allignment?? Where to buy??

I have a 91 toyota pickup 4x4 and i went to get it aligned today. They aligned the tow but said because my camber (or cam not sure what the term is) bolts are rusted and they were unable to free them that the full alignment could not be done. I already have an appointment next month for new half shafts, CV boots, and leaf springs to be installed so i dont have a prob having my friend put new bolts in it too. But i am having a hard time finding any. Is the dealer the only place to get them and if so how much would i be looking at? Thanx

the best thing to do would be to call your local dealer or contact phil (strap22) on here and see if they're available. i doulbt they are available as an aftermarket item.

Good luck finding those anywhere besides the dealer. If the bolts are rusted you may have to remove the lower control arms and clean them up to get them to move in the adjustment slots. May want to replace the bushings while you have them off. Cover the bolts and metal surfaces good with anti-seize when you put it back together and you won't have this problem again for a long time.

I had a shop tell me the same thing once.

I went home and used a breaker bar with a 3 ft. pipe on the end and freed them up so they could be adjusted.

Getting them out was another thing though.

MT GOAT is right when he says use lots of antisieze.
