[4th Gen : 01-07]: Strut replacement, now positive camber?
2005 GC SXT.
I replaced the front struts/shocks with those Monroe Quickstrut assemblies.
Now it appears that I have way too much positive camber.
Is there a way to adjust camber on these vans? Can I do it or should a shop do it?
I've done the quickstrut replacement on a Buick and Dodge Stratus before and neither have resulted in any kind of camber issues.
Any help would be appreciated.

So an alignment shop can adjust the camber on an '05? I ask because I searched and found this thread that said grinding and special bolts are needed to adjust camber?

The new struts you have probably have the groove already ground out which is why you have issues. You should have installed camber kits when you replaced the struts. You get a bolt with a cam washer on it to move the spindle in and out
Man that stinks, gotta pull everything back off. So grind out the bottom hole and install the goofy bolt? Then basically a little trial and error? Once I get the kit installed an alignment shop should have no problem dialing it in right?

Any of those look decent? Should I just stick an angle finder on the wheel to see how much I'm off and buy the appropriate kit?
Many thanks!

yes, if it isn't ground, you have to do it. Stick with the cam bolts like the AC Delco part, stay away from the center cams like that Moog one. And then take it somewhere and have it aligned. A little camber movement changes toe quite a bit as well.
