SPC toe bolt and the SPL lockout kit? Thought the lockout kit replaces toe bolts and eliminate any toe change from there.

This the response I got from the guy who sold me the parts. I showed him what you said.

"He's mistaken. If you get the SPL midlinks, then that would be true. Because then you have an adjustable bucket.
Alex
In your case, you keep the OEM bucket. So you need the SPC toe bolts to replace the OEM eccentric bolts. The SPC toe bolts give you more adjustability.
Alex
The lockout kit goes on the camber arms you replaced. That locks out the camber eccentric bolts.
Alex
Toe is adjusted at the bucket.
Alex
Alex Santamaria
or if you were to buy a "true rear coilover" setup, then you delete the bucket and replace it with the SPL toe arms. Then you'd need an eccentric lockout for the toe".
