One camber bolt per strut should easily correct a 2" lift.

I have heard that two camber bolts can be run per strut to correct excessive positive camber, but this should not be an issue at 2" of lift- I thing even up to 3.5" of lift can normally be corrected with a single bolt.

Most alignment shops can source the bolts. They are generally around the $130 mark.

Stock vitaras have no provision to correct camber at all - do you definitely already have camber bolts?

He might have meant to say "No adjustment" rather than "no more adjustment" :D
