Is this normal for camber issues?????
As some may know I have posted about some issues Im having with my suspension. GC/Illuminas I adjusted the height in the front to make both sides even. It appears that the camber is more negative on the driver side than the passenger. Is this normal? I have not been in an accident and dont know why it would be so different between both sides. Do I need a camber kit to give me the same negative camber on the passenger side?
how do you know if alignment is that far away from one another? what is the camber right now? is a lot different from side to side?
im on coilovers and driver side i'm at -3.0 and pass is at -3.2 camber..the pass side is little lower, very slightly that u can't see in person but by the machine, the camber shows it is.

There's plenty of reasons why camber might differ from side to side, and honestly none of them are worth discussing until the car is properly aligned on an alignment rack by someone who knows what they are doing. Eye-ball alignments are like butt-dyno tests.
chamber changes with ride height.
if you had to adjust the suspension travel in order to get the ride height even, then camber is going to be different too.
there of course is many other reasons why things, not just camber, are unequal side to side. naturally weight is not equal. and bushings could have worn unequally. and of course bent parts from daily use or hitting potholes and stuff.
theres no single answer to this, at least not without more information.
you need an alignment anyway. so get that done first and asap.
