OMG what a fantastic write up. Very interesting on the hard evasive braking, I always assumed it was "hits" that would take it out of alignment. Saving this...

That really depends where the camber angle sits now. If camber was between 0.4-/+ degrees I'd say leave it alone. But from what I've seen, from leveling them, I'm gonna bet your camber angles are closer to 0.8-/+ degrees. If this is the case, I would get the camber adjusted. The camber and caster kits are really the correct way to adjust camber/caster. You can move/adjust the arms without the kits, but its a PITA, and most shops will probably refuse to make camber/caster adjustments without the kits installed. So you will probably need to spend a couple hundred bucks to get the kit to adjust camber. It might seem expensive and its not a mod that your going to be able to enjoy, but its a lot cheaper then tires, and the kit should last the life of your truck.

If you get it all done, ask the shop for a print out of your before and after measurements, then bring them back here so I can look at them. If you don't mind.

I have the camber/caster bolt kit by SP installed and still have 1* negative camber with the camber bolts maxed out. What else can I do to get the camber down to around .2-.4? Upper control arm? Do they make camber bolts for control arm to give a little more camber/caster adjustment? 2012 raptor. Thanks! Great write up!
