In the process of doing some maintenance on the 91 miata. On the to do list is the eccentric bolts. As of right now they are fubared. Some of the bolts have the disks in the same plane others have the disks offset. Which is right? I have a feeling that having the disks facing the same direction is correct but need to know for sure. Thanks in advance.

Rant On. The person I paid to do the work on the car because of time limitations (school) fell through. Small claims court here I come! In the process of being a d-bag the guy screwed up everything, now I get to clean up the mess in the waning days of my winter break. Rant Off.

Match the orientation of the discs to each end - they're welded on to the head end of the bolt, and put the removable one on the same way.

Thanks keith, the car has turned into a basketcase, some were one way others the wrong way. Your expertise is greatly appreciated!
