    Default CAMBER ON A TJ?



    Im working on my 05 LJ and have a little bit of an alignment issue. I need to get some offset ball joints for both sides of my axel and want to know if there are any opinions on the amount of camber I should have? I like my tires to be straight up and down but some people like the tires to lean in a little. Anybody have any thoughts on this and has anyone else delt with the offset ball joints before?

    Whats causing the need for off set ball joints? Bent housing? It should be zero deg. camber and about 5 deg. caster IIRC.

    A slight bend in the axel tube, a little rough wheeling and too big of tires. Im back to 33's now and the axel is solid so I want to get it back to driving well and not eating tires.
