Toe eccentric flip for camber change?
I thought I saw a thread somewhere where a person had a problem with tool little rear camber, and it ended up having to do with the rear toe eccentric.
Question is: is flipping the toe eccentric a workable solution for making camber more positive? It seems like it would lower the pivot point of the rear arm, which would have a similar effect of decreasing the dogbone length.

i thought the only point to that was so you could change the bolt without removing the subframe in the future

When I put coilovers in I had way too much rear camber, one side I was able to fix with that toe adjuster but the other side we ended up slotting the bolt hole then welding in a couple washers to strengthen it back up. You can't just flip anything around, the other option is the Racing Beat camber adjuster or just make the same thing yourself.
