    I bought my camber bolts at the local Jeep/Chevy dealer. They are also used on some Chevys. The Jeep side didn't have them so they sent me to the Chevy counter. The other bolts(non camber) on my Grand are metric and I bought them at the hardware store ....grade 10.9 I think.

    Bare with me for my lack of knowledge on this but I want to make sure I do it right. I think my upper control arm bolts are the original bolts both the front and rear. I am not so much worried about the rear bolt as it looks just like a standard bolt.

    The front upper control arm bolt has the standard nut on one side which I can loosen no problem but the head of this bolt is almost flat and has what looks like a little plate that is folded over. Its fairly rusty and is not budging.

    Once I loosen the large bolt a little on the one side I cant even tap it out.

    I could cut these bolts out and put a M10 X 1.5 X 90mm standard bolt in but what about this piece that looks like a little metal plate that is attached to the existing bolt?
