I am planning on refurbishing my front suspension, I believe my camber angle is too negative angle. Specs states toe in 0 - .09 inch , camber - 1 degree +- .5 degree , and +2 degrees for caster angle but is not adjustable. I have new upper and lower ball joints and tie rod ends and boots. I am looking at replacing all bushings. My question is what controls the camber angle adjustment? , the manual doesn't explain?

There is no adjustment for camber. If you wish to adjust it, you will need to make a sliding plate for the top ball joint and elongate the original holes where the original solid rivets went through.

Thanks for the info, I checked my camber it's within specs. I'll need to rotate my tires more , they're showing more wear on the inside.
I did a little research , has anyone tried to install camber bushings in the upper control arms?
