1.Just had the front end aligned due to outer wear on the passenger side tire he told me and wife it needs a camber bolt to further get into spec. and the car is not lowered.Has anyone had this done before to factory height car?

2. Just noticed that the dash is cracked approx 7inchs long runs from defrost vent up to almost the gauge bezel. Appears the piece can be replaced but dont have dash manual to see if it seperates from rst of the dash.

Thanks.

has the car ever been in an accident. or maybe you've run into something a little too hard. might be a sign to look for some damage somewhere else under there.

but other than that, just go ahead and get a camber kit. camber kits weren't made just for people with lowered cars.

cars settle and shift over time.. alignment angles change in tiny amounts over the life of the vehicle.
mitsu sells several different sized bolts to allow for camber adjustment.
but we dont need them very often (about 3 times in 5 years).

Off topic, but either of you interested in selling that top part of your dash? If its the top cover I would be intersted as I plan on doing some custom work to mine, would be better if I had a spare part.

Let me know, thanks!
