my progress camber bolts have never shifted...and they are only tightened down to 85 ft.lbs. IIRC...I managed to get -2.3 degrees on each side with them...

I've used both SpecProd and Progress camber bolts and they've never slipped.

Camber Bolt

The previous owner of my car hit a median and the wheel pretty much exploded. After I bought it, the front driver side was making what sounded like a bad wheel bearing sound. I've also heard that if your camber bolt comes loose that it will cause that noise. I replaced the bearing and when I took the strut off the bolt seemed tight but after getting all back together it's still making noise. could it still be the camber bolt moving around?
