Default Max Camber without Camber kit

Happy new year everyone!

Can anyone tell me how far the negative camber (both front and back) can go with the stock suspension components (no camber kit)?

Also, I saw this on King's site for $400/pair:

King calls it "Adjustable Upper Control Arm". Is it the same as what we call "camber kit"?

Thanks in advance!

camber is not adjustable on stock suspension. it all depends on the ride height. about 2.5" drop will = 2 deg or so. more drop = more camber which means more inside wear.

I have the Skunk2 front camber kits forsale (see .sig). Which King resales with a huge markup...

Thanks for clearing up my misunderstanding. I've heard before about camber being non-adjustable but I was not really sure.

I always hear people say, "get the alignment done whenever you have a suspension mod." I automatically assumed that camber would be one of the adjustments. Now I know my assumption was wrong. Thanks!

Is it used or brand new? If it is used, how much was it brand new? I'm interested.
Right now I'm on the other side of the planet. I'll come back next week and hopefully it wouldn't be sold by then.
