Camber and toe-in bolts

Does anyone know what size Allen wrench is needed for the eccentric bolts on the spring plates of my '72. They are bigger than any I have in the shop.

Hi Mike

12mm & tough to find. Not @ Cdn Tire or Home Depot etc. You can order through Napa stores. I have one here, you're welcome to borrow, but I'm a ways away . . .

See My Alignment for my progress . . . mostly done now.

You can always cut off a piece of an allen wrench and turn it with a 12mm wrench.

I picked up a 12mm at Sears and cut it down a bit to fit in the area I have to work with.
