Make SURE of your toe first before buying those. There are several VERY GOOD writeups here on doing a basic TOE-IN alignment. My 96XJ I thought needed camber adjustment also until I did some measuring and found the difference between the front of the front tires and the rear of the front tires was almost 2 inches. It was an illusion of being off camber.

So first,,, check the toe.

Also check CASTER. Caster will have a direct effect on camber.
