Default Camber kit

Did y'all know about the camber kit on the F150. I goes behind the lower control arm bolts and consists of a cam bolt and washer with a locating pin. Did the Bilstein 5100 install on my '19 F150 4x4 and took it in for an alignment check. I marked the bolts and put the back the way I found them. My camber was spot on but toe was out quite a bit. Guy told me about the camber kit. Now to find one.

It's probably an eccentric bolt to get the adjustment. They are pretty simple but usually not cheap. Try putting a part description in on Roackauto.

Available pretty much anywhere. I like the Moog kit. There are also heavy duty kits better for those who beat on the truck off road.

I am not a fan of the service manual procedure posted above. It was used on my truck (specifically paragraph 2 support lower control arm) and bent the support brace between the front and back arm of the LCA. The support brace is C-shaped vice being solid and is not designed to support any weight.

The only weight being supported is the arm when bolts are removed. If it was bent somebody did something wrong.

Bought the Moog 100070 for around $70 both sides at Amazon. It is only the nut/cam and plate which looks like a lot easier than replacing the bolts, too.
