Need rear control arm alignment bolts with washers
 
I am in desperate need of the alignment bolts and washers to the toe arm and trail arm (I believe those are the two to adjust your alignment with)
I will pay 25 bucks plus ship whoever can get me these. The sooner I have these the sooner I can finally drive my car again!
Thanks!

Dealer. These are not something you want to get used.

Fickert 12-18-2012 04:19 PM

Why would I not want them used? Just wondering.

9krpmrx8 12-18-2012 04:32 PM

Because they wear out.

Fickert 12-18-2012 04:45 PM

Ohh. I figured they wouldn't really wear. But alright just called a mazda dear said they would order me some. Thanks

yep, replaced my rear ones a while back and have a new set of front ones ready to go in. They stretch and get weak over time, plus the locating slot in the slide-in cam under the nut wallows out and you start to lose max adjustment range when it doesn't line up fully with the opposing cam under the bolt head

be sure to slather the inner surface of the bushing sleeve and the outer surface of the adjuster bolt with anti-seize before installing them. They have been known to rust and freeze up without any lube applied, which means cutting them out for replacement.

Thats exactly what I had to do to them.
