Camber bolts, particularly the nice ones like Garm sells - have an eccentric lobe on the shank (like a camshaft) where it fits through the strut bracket. By adjusting the position of the lobe, you tilt the bottom of the strut "in" or "out" from vertical, and the hub/wheel goes with it. Viola! - camber!

The stock bolt you replace is exactly that; a regular bolt that doesn't have adjustability.
I hope that helps.
