i was adjusting the bolts on the lower control arm frame bracket.
i broke one of them, the small ones that adjust the arm.
my question is, do these do much in the line of actually holding the arm into position?
or are they mainly to judge how far the factory arms are moved when adjusting caster?
i tightened the ca bolt down tight, and the arm hasn't moved, so will i need to replace this or will it be ok?

I have broken more than a few of those brackets.
If its the one that looks like a U with two bolts on the back, you can get them from the stealership for a few bucks.
HTH.
