Default Camber

I'm installing my Belltech 4/6 kit this weekend. Should I worry about the front having to much camber? The front is lowered with shocks and springs, NOT spindles.

If so, where can I pick up a decent camber kit to correct this?

What does it consist of?

This is my first truck. Usually my car camber kits are the entire strut top mounnt. And with those you can adjust camer by sliding the center nut angling the entire strut for negaive or positive camber.

Each side consists of 2 special bolts, 4 off set washers and 2 nuts.

That's it? lol... ust seems like nothing compared to camber kits I have used on my race cars.

Will that be enough to get the camber corrected after a 4/6 drop? Or would I need more washers?

That should be enough for the alignment shop to work with. I had to get some after doing my ball joints

You should put down some laps at the track before you install the camber kit! Give us some before and after times!
