My camber was fine then I added control arm drop brackets to my adjustable arms. Now my camber is off. I know that this can actually be a result of the pinion angle being off, causing your c- joint to be off. And I never put my stock shims back in behind where my lower control arm mounts to the frame. So I think I'll start there. Just wanted some input from maybe one of the master minds we have out there.

Here is good info the control arm specs are at the bottom.

When you install drop brackets the lower arms need to be shortened. Did you adjust them?

I just installed drop brackets last weekend so its all fresh in my mind. I follwed the measurements in that link and added another 1/4 inch to push the axle fwd a bit. Worked out perfectly. However my sway bar links hit the coils now. Get pictures if you can.
