- hi,
-
- i have a 88 jetta gli w/ ~75,000 miles.
-
- i brought the car in for a four wheel alignment yesterday
- and was told that 'cam bolts' needed to be added to the
- front end. how far out of alignment can the front suspension
- be before 'cam bolts' are required?? i thought that the rear
- suspension was nonadjustable, how is a four wheel alignment
- performed on the back end?? is it normal to add rear shims
- to adjust the rear end??
-
- thanks in advance,
- and please email to:
