Rear lower control arm bolts
So i was reading that these have a tendency to break or get seized. As i'm starting to redoing the entire rear suspension, i ordered new bolts/nuts/washers and bushings (for the metal guide needed to install the urethane ones). When i was looking up the part numbers it listed 2 seperate part numbers for the bolts. Is one bolt a standard bolt and the other the eccentric/cam bolt? or are they both cam bolts? This is what i received today, i only ordered 2 of the bolts, because i wanted to confirm i was getting the right ones.
Now do I need to order another 2 just like these, or is there a different bolt that i need to order? -

so are the other 2 just standard bolts? Do all the bolts have issues freezing up or just the cam bolts? -

Only the cam bolts seem to stick. Not sure why. They do that on everything, not just Nissans. 50% of the alignments I get at work can't be done right because the rear toe adjusters are rusted solid, even on cars as new as 2009.5.3 LSx Z31 -

probably because of the gap the cam bolt creates, allows more dirt/water inside. I didn't have issues with many cam bolts at work, but for the stubborn ones i have an 8lb mini sledge that normally made them cooperate. Only on the older nissan trucks were they a pita. -

Anyone have the p#s for the eccentric bushings, when I look them up it keeps referencing me to the bushings I already have(non eccentric). -

About to do the rear control arm bushings myself. My camber is eating my tires, and I'm hoping the new bushings will keep them tight.__________________________________________________ ___________________
