Default Bolt photo required.

Has anyone got a pic of a suspension adjusting bolt for the subaru front strut ? The eccentric one.

Thanks lads thats great and thanks for swift replies. I wanted to know if the cam had a fine peak or high point that covered say 45 degrees of the bolts rotation.
I have set mine up today and rotated them 180 degrees from where they were ( way too much neg ). But when turning them, maximim positive was achieved by a 90 degree turn. As i didnt know the cam style and rotation start place to be sure i rotated another 45 to 180 from start point. So, im either spot on or have gone 45 degrees past the cam high spot for positive and my struts may sink back neg to where i started. lol. Anyway, car looks great, stands great and still has slight neg camber. Cant check the car again till friday or saturday now.

Does the D 1 stamp on the bolt head have any cam location significance ?
