Default help with alignment

Hey yall,

So about a month ago i took my truck in to get an alignment done, well after i got the call to come pick it up i showed up and they told me " we cant get the alignment perfect until you replace the eccentric bolts".

I have absolutely no idea what it is or how it works or even where to find it to replace it.
can anyone help me out? i have looked it up at my local advance auto parts and all the comes up is eccentric bushings.

Can i do this at home?

thanks in advance

they are idiots. go somewhere else. you dont have eccentric bolts.

are you all stock? if you arent, you may need new camber bushings. get the Moog adjustables. they take a fair amount of work to swap out.

They are probably refering to a possible camber eccentric kit u may have. This would have installed if the truck has ever had a level kit installed. Also they may be saying u need one if yer truck is sagging up front. Old springs n such

thanks for the replies!

as far as i know everything is stock, im not sure due to the fact im the 10th owner. But we are pretty sure it was used as a city vehicle so i wouldnt think there would be any modifications.

guess ill take it back on my day off. I paid for the lifetime alignment so im going to use it
