Camber

I've lost the camber on my front tires after 3 months of Apex suspension. Old struts but it ate the two front tires on the inside. My neighbor which aligns cars for a living tells me that he'll have to make some kinda mod to the bolts that hold the strut so it straightens up. But the problem is that I won't be able to loosen the strut without loosing alignment.

Is there some kinda camber kit or something?

I have a 95 ES 1.8 DOHC

that will happen with any camber bolt, when you lossen the strut bolt you will loose your camber,... You can compat this with white out and just making a line across the bolt and on the strut ,,..
You just make sure the bolt is aligned and that is it

I've thought that out and I think you should too.

When there is only one bolt there is a pivoting point.. when there is two bolts there is no pivoting point thus not permiting loss of camber on the strut. If there is another place where camber can be adjusted please let me know, 'cause I'm not a professional.

with camber bolts the two bolts are smaller than the holes in your strut and the knuckle which will allow the camber adjustment . By marking these bolts you will be able to put them in the same place. Stock bolts have no movement they are the same size as the hole.
