Re: positive camber

Personally I would figure out why you cannot adjust to correct camber with the stock height springs and drop spindles. It is the best option IMO. From my experience if you do the 3" drop spring your problem will just be reversed, excess inner tire wear. The SLA (short/long arm) suspension camber curve accelerates the deeper it gets into the cycle. A 3" drop spring will put the static position of arms deep into the camber curve cycle causing accelerated inner tire wear even if the suspension is aligned. I lived with changing my front tires every 10-15k while I had the drop springs in it. Yes, my truck had stock camber and slightly increased caster at ride height.
