    Can you tell if camber is maxed out by looking at the cam nut?

    For one thing you took pictures of the rear cam adjustments? That only adjusts the Caster. The picture of the front of your truck you can't even see the cam adjustments. If you want our help?
    Please take better pictures!
    I don't like to strain my eyes.

    Take pictures of the cam adjustments that are on the front of the LCA's. Then we can tell you what we think.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.

    Nice shades. It does look like it's off, from this angle any way.

    Nad, this is out of the factory service manual. It has the numbers you should be close to compiled with different tire sizes. It may also help explain some things for you.

    You were sort of right, that is one of the adjustment cams. But that cam adjusts the Caster. The front cams adjust the Camber.
