    Negative camber will kill your inner tread.

    Either. Both. Start with the UCA double shear and plate the coil bucket if you can. A bypass hoop isn't going to do anything for your coil bucket that the double shears won't.

    Yes you can. He'll just probably have to re-do them if gets aftermarket UCA's later.

    wrong...over time that negative camber will wear your tread out on the inside.

    Ha
    Best way is to get some GOOD videos of you running a section, even better if you can do a go-pro looking at the suspension. Or you can put a ziptie on the shock shaft, run the section and see how much shaft you're using and adjust from their.
    Is is all stock valving in their right now? I can set you up pretty good just based on your truck if you wanted, then tune from there
