Has anyone replaced the eccentric bolts to aftermarket for alignment??
If so, where did you get them, and how much do they cost??

Just got my first alignment post lift, and I'm not gonna do anything until everything settles,
but the guy at Firestone told me there are aftermarket bolts available that give more adjustment
to enable them to bring everything back to spec.

He told me around $10 - $15 per bolt (times four bolts)

I'm not out by much at the moment (less than half a degree on each side), and
this may become a non-issue after the suspension settles..... just thought I'd through
the question out there.

You already have cam bolts installed and no aftermarket ones will give you more adjustment.If you have not added JBA's UCA's it will be harder to get back into alignment.Tell the alignment guy to sacrific caster for camber,as long as you have at least 2-3 degrees caster and within .5 degrees of cross caster you will be fine.Camber will wear tires,caster will not.
