I just installed my 4.5" lift and 33 tires on my XJ once i put it back on the ground and looked at it i noticed that my front tires are kicked out at the bottom. WHy would my camber be off now? I am running new fixed lower arms and stock uppers and an adjustable track bar

Whats your caster at? If your caster is off that can also mess with your camber. Also, I assume that you are running a rim with less backspace now? It could be because you have more strain on your ball joints and they are showing signs of wear they werent before.

My camber seems to be fine i think i am a little in the dark when it comes to caster, camber and toe so how do i check the caster? I am running 1.25" wheel spacers and TJ canyon wheels

The toe is out of wack and toed way in making it look like a camber problem.

With a solid axle, you shouldn't have any camber to adjust. If it exists, your axle tube is bent. You will likely end up wearing out bearings and shafts.

this is most likely the problem

That makes the most sense of anything I have read so far. I have been all over the Internet for a day looking for causes. I know my axel is not bent because before the lift I had no camber issue and before the lift I had checked my ball joints for play and found none. So I guess next step is to take it for an alignment

Sorry. I assumed you already adjusted your toe in and toe out which is always a must after modifying suspension.

I was going to adjust the toe but then I noticed that my wheels were like that so I was a bit confused since I assumed there was no way to adjust camber. I didn't know that a lack of toe adjustment could make it look like bad camber.
