Front end issues

[tommygun]

Hello all,
I have been looking for help, with camber adjustment on a Mazda protege 2002. It seems to be out of alignment and they all say it cannot be adjusted. A dealer sugested drilling out the top of the strut tower to adjust it. Is this true?? Could there be no adjustment? Please help...

Only toe is adjustable. Camber and caster can't be adjusted unless you get out the hammers and drills. There is a camber bolt available from many suspension places (i put a link of one at the bottom)...which would replace one of your strut bolts, and make it easier to dial in whatever camber angle you want.

Was the car previously wrecked? How far off is the camber from where it should be?

The stock top hats have 4 points of camber/caster adjustability by simply rotating them. There should be a white dot on top. Where is it located?
