Oem cam bolt for adjusting toe fits and works. Had it in Energy bushings and PBM spherical conversion bushings.
PBM or other adjustable toe rods will reduce slop (depending on condition of your stock ones anyway) and allow adjustment. The stock ones are also usually the first thing to go (bend) in a curb strike or similar. I have yet to break a PBM one yet but I’m told they shear the bolt on either end...

I had the complete set of partsmax solid and spericals installed in rear except the vertical factory camber rod...now I have positive camber...I can only think the vertical rod is wrong...so I am having it removed...is it really needed for support now that all else is solid mounted ...track day car only

Dear god. Im assuming you have the spherical subframe mounts that move? IF so you need that "camber" rod to stop them form rocking back and forth. Otherwise, what ride height are you running? Coilovers?
