I just did the front & rear struts on this '98.

I noticed that there's a fair amount of slack for "adjustment" between the strut bottom bolts and the knuckle. Do they make bolts that would allow camber adjustment at this point? Do they work well?

Comments?

 

Yes, you can get them. I googled "camber kit for 1998 maxima" and got links to 7 places (that I clicked on) with kits by Moog, Eibach, and others, a couple of youtube how-to videos. Most were on-line places but one was a local auto parts store chain, O'Reilly which is in my area. You can get maybe as much as 2º of adjustment, depending on brand.

It has been a while since I removed a strut, but I don't remember there being any slack or play when the factory bolts were in the holes.

 

I am using the factory bolts... but maybe the (KYB) struts themselves are drilled oversize? It was cold and dark by the time I was bolting them in, so I didn't stop to measure what was allowing the play.

 

KYB happens to be what I put in my 97, but like I said, it was several years back. Maybe KYB makes them a little different now. I don't know.
