On all Volkswagen Vanagon models, the camber (the angle at which the tyres are on the asphalt) is adjusted using the mounting bolt on the upper support arm, which is eccentric. It is not the bolts that are eccentric but the washers through which these flat-faced bolts pass. Rust is the biggest culprit because the camber can no longer be adjusted. If you are afraid to unscrew this bolt, use a rustproofing product (e.g. WD-40 ) and try to remove it carefully, if it is irreparable, order the bolts (see options tab).
Eccentric bushings are often damaged, so replacement is the best solution so that the camber can be readjusted to the correct value again.
These rings have a thickness of 4 mm, which can only be important for a Syncro for the correct adjustment.
The rings can also be used on models up to March 1982, but then in combination with new bolts (see options tab)
