whats a good substitute for eccentric bolts

Yeah thats right you know they slip...
I been through a bunch of alignments allready and want to make the next one the last one for a while including cornerweighting. I have coilovers and all adjustable arms other than lower control arms. What can I use instead of the eccentric bolts for the toe arms and rucas?

heh..i just pressed in my solid bushings...rides better on the freeway. shocks doing their job instead of waiting for rubber to compress.

You're the only person i've ever heard not having a problem with the bolts backing out. I suppose i could use thread locker . Are you suppose to?

Or just use a fender washer, a little less work than welding one on.

I've only had problems with monkeys overtightening them which spins the washer and locks it into the bolt. Then you have to drop the subframe just to hammer the bastard out.
