    My series 1 ST162 has the adjusters on both sides at the front. From memory, it is the same unit used on both sides on the frontend.

    urantia, its not really possible to put a driveres side strut on the passenger side as they are opposites, since the adjustment cut out is in the hub not the strut, you obviosly can't swap the hub because of the tie rod end, and brake layout. even the adjusters are individual to their side as the cutouts are on, i think the back of the hub. and the strut is also individual to its side because of the tabs for swaybar links and brake line

    so no can't do it

    Doh!! your quite right wiso, i was thinking the struts for some unknown reason.

    Otherwise $200 camber bolts for my friend, his celica had actually been in a small front end accident recently, and the bodyworks supposedly straightened it out, but i suspect this may be the reason the camber can't be set properly.

    should only cost 50 bucks or thereabouts
