Moog makes camber adj bushings, but depends how much you might have to get a bracket that corrects the axle pivot points.

But with a six inch lift the camber can get so wicked that the top of the ball joint won't hold the castle nut on top of the alignment shims. The company that made the lift should make a kit to correct this. Or you have to buy taller ball joints.

any 6 inch lift kit worth buying would come with drop down brackets for your front axles. and if that was your problem, your excessive camber would be positive, not negative. need to take that bad boy to an alignment shop if you haven't already... any time you change your suspension you have to get it aligned, including a lift.
