Default Looking for camber alignment help

Can someone tell me which of these tons of camber eccentric bushings would help align a 2 degree positive camber problem on a lifted 2WD F150? Basically Im looking for an eccentric that will give me two degrees of negative camber.

Most of them just say caster adjustment but the caster is fine and I dont want to mess with the caster much. Trying to help a buddy align his new truck. Help is greatly appreciated!

I had 3 degree positive camber after my leveling kit. Put these on, it's back and all good.

+/- 2 degree caster/camber bushings. You might even be able to get away with less

Ok. Well advance/autozone/napa, they all have them. You need Plus or Minus 2 degree Caster/Camber bushings.

Might be able to get away with less than 2, but I have a how-to on this site also that tells you everything you need to know about replacing the bushings

If I order those you linked, do I need anything else? Ive replaced them on my truck and they looked slightly different. It says "Pinch Bolt And Nut Not Included" does that mean the bolt and nut that you tighten the eccentric into the ibeam with?

Nope you need nothing else. The pinch bolt is already on the truck, you can see the bushing and the pinch bolt here. 2 degree bushings should solve all your problems but I'd go to wherever he's going to get his alignment(I suggest tire kingdom) and ask them their opinion too before fully ordering
