Default New Camber kit , had a few questions..............................

I just got my blox camber kits in, is the ball joint part supposed to move around when u push it around? I dont see how this is gonna keep things in place if you mount it on the car. I dont know, this is my first camber kit ive ever used so help me out.

They're supposed to stay in place once you tighten everything down. However, pot holes might decide otherwise depending on the spring rate, ride height, etc...

i see... i installed the camber kits , it still looks like i have some negative camber on the fronts... How do i adjust it so that it is more "stock" camber? Do i move the piece that comes out of the ball joint around????
