I have a camber guage and can do before and after measurements

not concerned if the camber adjustment creates more negative caster since I also have a pinion arm drop kit that will eventually go on that will move the caster back positive.

My question is why are you messing with camber?? If this is 4wd, you dont change camber after a lift, you change caster. Big difference.

Those look right.. cutout goes to the rear to increase caster.

Pretty sure he's basing his need for less camber on tire wear.

So now they do look right, they now look like the ones you've used on Super Dutys?

correct

it looks like
1/4 will effect pos camber
1/4 will effect neg camber
1/4 will effect pos castor
1/4 will effect neg castor
