Wrong strut/hub bolt

[Ex-User (36231)]

When changing my springs I have found unmatched lower strut bolts I.e. one is too small (diameter!)

I think this may be the reason my car is unstable around corners. Obviously I'm going to source and replace with a proper one.

Would you agree this would cause some problems handling wise???

Anyone had this before? Someone else must have bought a shed!

Sure it's not a camber bolt?

Did it have a weird washer or was it not perfectly round?

Yeah it did have a weird washer, like a locking spot welded at the top to stop it rotating, never knew that's what they were.

It's supposed to be there, it alters the camber.

Okay cool but I only have a camber bolt on one side, this would make my handling bad surely?
