After doing a SOA, C&T, upgrade to Marlin high steer arms and a mini truck disk brake conversion I noticed that my passenger side has positive camber (top of the tire leans outward), about 3-5 degrees.
Here is a link to my build thread if any of you guys would like to check it out. It goes through the rebuild / upgrade process.

This is what (I think) I know….
*It was not like this before I did the rebuild.
*Its not my toe adjustment because my camber is off all the way through the steering cycle, it never gets any better.
*The knuckle seems to be in great shape.
*I had great preload before I took it all apart.
*When I did the C&T, there was no play at all in the rotation. It was really hard to rotate so I would be extremely surprised if welding it caused it warp. Plus I tacked first and welded small sections and let cool in between.
*After a little trial and error my final guess on the shims was 1 think on the bottom and 1 thin + 1 think on top. This produced a good preload.
*There was no play from top to bottom in the wheel assembly.
*I’m assuming the axle is not bent because it is positive camber.
I am completely stumped and I do not know what to do or look for next. Any help and or ideas on what to look for would be a huge help! Thanks in advance for your support…
