Default LCA Cam Bolts.

Are these needed ? i took my jeep into the mechanics today to get it aligned and the mechanic pointed out that there were no Cam Bolts on the LCA's. Anyways, he didnt end up doing the allignment until i replace some lower ball joints. But in if i return to get an alignment done, do i need the Cam Bolts? thanks

+1 big time.

Within theory, adjustable short arms will allow for some degree of tweaking, specifically caster, but as far as camber goes no. And again, +1 to everything Freegdr said.
