Default Ty CL veterans, advice on another pic- camber/suspension

Another six months it will be 2 years since I own this car I'm still learning the basic of this vehicle for my exuberant daily driving. Knowledge is priceless and thank you veterans once again for the help, here are a few more pics I had questions on
1-

Notice that the censor is not straight up between those two bolts like on the passenger side is that a problem?
2 -

Which one is the camber bolt?

3 -

the oil here is the that bad and what should I do or check for?


like in my previous post my inner tie rods my outer tie rods lower ball joint and my world just came in https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...other-pic.html.

One other pic
that bolt on the upper control arm do you think like Tire rubs against that sometimes?

How the ABS sensor is aligned within the hub would not matter.

Do you put those zip ties on that boot?

Take brake clean to all of that oil/grime/build-up and check for leaks after running for a drive. Likely to be a front timing cover seal issue.

I didnt think they were adj from factory. You can move x member to equalize.
Bolt will move up with wheel so cannot rub.
Wash off all oil 1st then check for leak (as stated above)
Zip ties can fail. Try to get the stainless ones.

There is not factory camber adjustment for the front.
You'd have to do aftermarket camber arms if you want to make any camber adjustments.

What all has been done to this? It looks like a *newer* inner tie rod that wasn't installed with the correct clamps.

That leak is much higher up. Start from the top down and when cleaning either remove the belt or attempt to protrect it from solvents and grease as these contaminates can make it squeak later by allowing it to slip on the pullies.
