A camber adjusting device for use in a strut-type suspension system comprises a bolt fitted with a centrally disposed eccentric sleeve. At each end of the sleeve when on the bolt there is fitted an eccentric portion. Each eccentric portion is sized to project into aligned bores in respective flanges while the sleeve is adapted to fit within a bore of a further part of the strut-type suspension system to facilitate eccentric displacement between the bore in the further part and the bores in the flanges.

[ We claim:] [1.] A camber adjusting device for a strut suspension system; said device comprising a bolt having a head, shank and threaded end remote from the head, a centrally disposed eccentric sleeve rotatably mountable on the shank of the bolt; the head end of the bolt having an eccentric portion projecting axially from the head toward the centrally disposed sleeve and the threaded end of the bolt, a corresponding further eccentric portion adapted to be slidably mounted over the threaded end of the bolt so as to project toward the eccentric projecting portion at the head end of the bolt, further wherein the amount of eccentricity of each eccentric portion relative to the axis of the bolt is the same and the outside diameters of the eccentric portions and of the eccentric sleeve are the same and which outside diameter corresponds to the diameter of a bore in a steering knuckle assembly of a vehicle suspension system adapted to receive the device, wherein in use the knuckle assembly is adapted to be mounted to a suspension support strut via the bolt through said bore and aligned bores in a pair of support brackets of said strut when said support brackets sandwich the bore of the knuckle assembly therebetween, and wherein the length of the eccentric sleeve is no greater than the length of the bore in the steering knuckle assembly and the axial projection of each eccentric portion is no greater than the length of each respective bore in the pair of support brackets.
