Your truck is alligned correctly. All of the cams appear to be adjusted all the way out.

You have 3 choices.

1. Live with the 1 degree posative camber

2. Get ATS to send you the "Schaefer" version of the a-arm

3. Put the stock arms back on, and adjust the cams way back in the other direction.

You got your arms from Wheelers. There were several unexcuseable issues with the arms wheelers sold. Too long, wrong sleeves and early beta like design.

I would contact Wheelers as well as ATS and get your set swapped out. Send them links to these posts. You have to make noise to get action. Fire up the band Burton!

Personally I would go for the gray newer version of the arms with the ProComp gray powder coat. They are very nice.

Jump on Wheelers just as hard as you jump on ATS. They sold you the arms and need to take care of you as well. I paid $350 for my set, so don't feel bad. You found a deal but in the end it may not have been a deal.
