Where can I find the camber bolts?

Great job on a detailed video with clear instructions on replacement of suspension parts. . Love the fact that you use copper anti-seize on brake line and shoulders of suspension bolts (not threads) to save rubber bushings. Did you coat the wheel studs with anti-seize or just the rotor mating surface? It would be great for you to explain to the viewers the correct way to handle wheel lug nuts and studs. Thanks for another great video.

This is an excellent video from a superman auto tech. I will be making a video to show the issues I ran into. 1st BUY NEW DUST CAPS. These do not wiggle out with channel locks. You MUST drive a screwdriver into the lip to get them out so plan on having these on hand. My 11 Expy doesn't use cotter pins as it uses flange lock nuts with the plastic stuff. I had to torch out the plastic on 4 of these so plan on having these at least for teh upper ball joints. Removing the sway bar link from the control arm is a pain since mine do NOT have the flat part noted in this video. The metal contact area is round... Leave these on the old arms and toss away and REPLACE. I wondered why all the control arm kits I see come with these... And get yourself some sway bar bushings while you're at it since they are cheap. Next up is the control arm bolts. EGADS..... The nuts come right off but you will be air impacting these bolts to generate heat with a friend on the other side driving with a large metal round stock and hammer. Then PB blaster the bolt shaft, drive them back in, reverse them out and friend pounding (paying him in many beers); repeat for many minutes/beers... This was the worst part of the job but don't give in as they will come out. The 30mm and 27mm strut bolts weren't too terrible. 1/2" impact took these off without any problem. Tightening back to 405'# I'll have to figure out... Heck while you're at it SWAP THE STRUTS. 3 15mm nuts that you PB Blasted earlier in the day and these are accessible under the hood taking a total of 1 minute per strut... This mechanic did them from under fender. Prob didn't want to lower the truck as you can get them that way but couple of 1/2" extensions and your friendly impact driver...

It would be helpful to know bolt/nut sizes so we can have proper wrench/socket sizes.

How do you know when it is time to replace the lower and upper control arms? I have this weird vibration in the steering wheel. The tire shop said I need to replace both, since they are the original and I have 210,000 on my 2010 Ford Expedition.
