Negative camber

I was just looking at my truck with the same issue. 95 f150 6" rough country lift. After springs have settled now have negative camber. Swapped to the upper holes on axle pivot and it caused positive camber. I was thinking of drilling in the center of the two holes to see if it will even out. After just reading this post it confirms my thoughts. So yes your new comment on an old post has helped this guy out. Thank you!!

It might not be an issue other than in my head but I would be concerned about weakening the bracket by drilling a hole between the other two holes.

that is a thought and concern I am having. But nothing a welder can not fix. If I drill the holes and all plays out correct then I pull the brackets and beef them up.

As far as a " GOOD" shop to play with the camber bushings. Unfortunately I've tried a 3 shops that have been highly recommended for th Ttb front end. But after spending a couple hundred at each shop only for the problem to still exist is a pain in the ***. All new bushings, ball joints, tie rods, center link. Everything has been replaced. Sometimes things have to be customized to make stuff work properly. When you start fooling with geometry of a suspension that can be the way it is.
