What is a common way to adjust camber on a vehicle equipped with a strut suspension system?

Adjusting the camber on a vehicle with a strut suspension system is typically done by turning an eccentric cam bolt located at the base of the strut. This method allows for precise adjustments to the angle of the wheel relative to the vertical axis, which is crucial for optimizing tire wear, handling characteristics, and overall vehicle stability.

When the eccentric cam bolt is turned, it changes the position of the strut assembly, which in turn alters the camber angle. This adjustment is commonly found on many modern vehicles, as it provides a straightforward and effective means of fine-tuning alignment settings without the need for extensive modifications or replacement of components.

Other options, while they may affect suspension geometry in some cases, are not standard methods for directly adjusting camber in a strut suspension system. For example, adjustable lower control arms could modify other alignment angles but would not typically allow for direct camber adjustment as efficiently as the eccentric cam bolt. Adjusting tie rod length primarily affects toe alignment, and changing the strut mount positioning can lead to changes in camber but involves more complexity and may not yield the desired camber adjustment as simply or effectively as adjusting the cam bolt.
