I had my control arm bushings swapped, and marked the camber bolts per the TSRM, but when put the arms back on, I can't seem to get them to line up like the did before I took them off. Is there some trick? Its like as I rotate the bolt to line up the marks, the arm shifts and the dial moves over the marks. Would it be ok to just get it close and nurse it to the alignment place? I'm not terribly sure how far out of spec things will be, I just want it safe enough to make the 12 mile trip

most likely yes. get them as close as you can and get it to the shop. make sure you get them tight
