Default Front Camber Bolts

Getting ready to take her in for an alignment and will order the 5140876AA camber bolts from Chrysler just in case I need them. Does the 5140876AA part number come with one bolt or two? How many bolts do I need, two or four? The dealer was clueless on both counts. Thanks in advance.

You need 4, and the way the rear suspension is designed there aren't any camber bolts for the rear.

If they're clueless I hope your not going to get the alignment done there!

When I installed my Eibach Pro kit I ordered an eccentric camber bolt kit from Chrysler. There were only one bolt per side, after installed I took it in for an alignment & the front camber was pretty well right on the money. But the tow was way off - front & rear. I had also installed a K-MAC adjustable rear camber kit bushings. Here is the post I made asking questions myself :

The 5140876AA (Chrysler Part #) - - 2023300118 (MB Part #) - - factory camber bolts are only for the front (one on each side) - you need the K-MAC kit for the rears.

Here is a link for the K-MAC Kit

Now I'm confused

Per Mercedes Benz - "It would depend on the severity of the alignment required - up to two bolts per side for severe damage"

Buy four and return what you don't need.

So I guess, if more alignment is needed, can the garage then just easily slip out the old bolts and pop these new puppies in?

OK, Speaking as someone who has never done a front end alignment,...Why do the bolts need replacing? When I replaced the struts on my Wifes 07 Tribeca, I just marked them, and put them back.

Camber is not adjustable with the standard bolts. The hole the bolt fits into is oblong (___). The stock bolt is solid and centered in the hole. (_O_) The adjustable bolt has a notch on one side. You can put the bolt in with the notch facing the middle or outside of the car. This pushes the whole arm in/out a bit depending on what you need. (O__) (__O) or at least this is how I convinced myself it was working when I installed mine.
