    KYB strut issues...

    Just got a set of KYB's for the Wife's "new" 88 LeBaron GTS.

    First of all, ROCK AUTO RULES!!!, ordered on Monday at 11AM, arrived here at work at 11AM Wednesday.

    Anyway, it seems the bottom hole in the strut where it bolts to the to knuckle - the slotted one - is not slotted enough to get proper adjustment for caster/camber.......

    Anyone ever have this happen??

    I put a smaller diameter bolt in just to get by, any real answers??

    A grinder???

    The head on the bottom strut bolt is oval shaped, and there is a tab on the KYB struts where the bolt head slides against thus setting the camber. Hope this helps.
