Is my axle bent?
So did an alignment this past weekend and on the driver side i have -1.2 of negative camber..... not good and idk why i have it, even with my 3 inch lift. on the passenger side i have -.9 of positive camber but thats not unusual with a lift. Ive checked by ball joints and there all good! So what do you guys think it is? the whole axle housing bent or just the knuckle? What ya think? Ive been driving it for months and no problems so i feel like if the axle was bent it woulda had more problems by now....

worn wheel bearings/hubs or ball joints can do this. if they are perfect then just get a 1* or 1.5* adjustable ball joint and call it good.
that is what I did... no problems

long arms wont change camber. i would check over the front end again and if its all tight then do like said above... get a ball joint to offset it in the correct way.
