camber eccentrics question

[mstng_ray]

Ok going to replace the ball joints on my 99 ranger 4x4 today. Already recieved some info on doing it but i have a few more questions i need answered before i get started. I already have the eccentrics from a previous alighnment i had done a few years ago. So i was wondering if i can reuse them on the new control arms, and if so should i try to get them back in the same position or does it not matter because they're going in a new arm.
Also will the alighnment be close enough to drive for a few days until i can get it in for a alighnment on monday. Thanks for the help.

I assume you have cam bolts? Then yes, reinstall them close to the same position that they were previously set at. Its ok to drive a couple days, but your handling and tire wear will suffer.

If anything your camber will be slightly off, so you'll need to set the alignment again. It's not a hard alignment to do, 98+ Rangers are actually quite easy to align in my experience, especially when the eccentric cams are already installed.
