I have the exact issue. I only used a 1 1/2" spacer in front to level the truck which it did. The passenger side is the problem with the bushing rubbing the knuckle. This is only the case on the 2WD. The driver side has more room. My wheels are positive but only slightly. I did grind down the inside of the knuckle a little for additional clearance. If you do that you would have to use your own discretion as to what you feel is a safe amount to remove. If you could go to 1 1/2" lift you could correct more positive camber. Mine is only off about a degree on the passenger side now. Decision only you can make. Sandy
