Default suspension bolt help!

Guys
Just been looking at a thread where someone wanted a pic of a bolt for the front suspension.
After reading some of the replies im slightly worried now. I did a overhaul on my front and rear suspension (the rears were knocking) but i just put the bolts back in as i never noticed they had a camber on them . Would this be the same for the rears ? what problems could i have caused ?
cheers

There's no camber bolt routinely fitted at the rear. If you've fitted them the wrong way around at the front it will be more difficult to get the wheel alignment sorted. I assume you had the alignment checked after you put it back together; if not get it checked and if they can get it all to line up you have no problems otherwise you'll just need to swap the bolts over.

Worst case it'll handle a bit worse than before and you might see some uneven tyre wear if the alignment is all out!!
