Hey guys, so I'm taking my coilovers off and putting the stock struts back on but can't get the camber adjustment bolt back in. When I get the sway bar endlink and bottom of the shock bolts in like this
<br >

Then I can't get this bolt in, I've tried pushing the rotor down. But even when I get it down enough, it isn't aligned with the holes
<br >
Anyone might know what I can do?
By the way, I tried taking the bolts out from the bottom of strut and sway bar endlink and I still couldn't get the camber bolt in, and even if I could, I wouldn't be able to puck the strut back into place.
Also any tips on removing/putting back together the front when I get to that? Thanks in advance!

Jack up the control arm to meet the knuckle.

That's what I did on my civic, and I tried it on here and it only moved a little bit then started lacking the whole car up

Just takes some time it'll work in no real trick other than just use a jack to jack control arm up to knuckle

I usually remove the other bolt on the other side of the LCA that connected to the chassis.

Okay I'll try that tomorrow then, thanks!

I am also facing the same problem. I have also tried to remove the bolt on the other side but nothing happened..
Anything else can be done to solve the problem?

Try leaving the shock unbolted but still sitting in the channel of the control arm, jack up the control arm to the spindle then slide the shock into place.

Okay thanks I'll try this when I get home tonight, I tried everything else it seems. It wasn't this hard when I installed the coilovers

I forgot your putting stock shocks back on. Once you get the spindle bolted up, push the control arm down and slide the shock into place. You may need to step on the control arm to push it down. Good luck man

Were you able to get it back together?

I tried what you suggested, I don't know if I don't weigh enough or what but I couldn't get the lca to push down. I ended up just putting the coilover back on for now. Until I have a little more time to mess with it
