Negative Camber?
So, i recently got my car align'd like 5 months ago. As i drive my car for like 30 min-2hours. The car starts to have some negative camber on it. Once again i though that the shop did a bad shop on the alignment, therefore i go 2 a different shop. Then i drive it for 30min-2 hours, i now see some negative camber on it again! Do you guys have any idea what the problem is?

OP, your post makes no sense or my blood sugar is just low from my workout, you got your car aligned 5 months ago, you say you drove your car 30 min - 2 hours twice, is it immediately after you get your car aligned or over a period of months? is it all 4 wheels? or just 2? how bad is the camber? is it barely noticeable or is it like -4 degrees? have you even checked your camber kits for excessive wear?
IMO, you may new need new camber kits, skunk2 suspension products aren't the highest quality, or the shops you went to really do suck… I'm leaning towards option A. I still have stock front camber arms, buddy club rear camber kit, and I have had my car aligned ranging from mom and pop shops that do it with a piece of string, to Evasive Motorsports that uses laser technology plus 4 corner balancing, never had an issue, i run -2 camber all around and only variation i have had is ~.02-.03 degrees.
Side note, camber does not excessively wear tires, it is toe that does.

okay, i found out what the problem was, on the rear camber kit, i am missing both of the bolts that hold it together. Example-

That's why it has been loosen up every time i drive.
I am gonna try 2 go 2 home dep. to go find some nuts, i would appr, if someone would tell me what size are the bolts are 2 save me some times.

I also have another question, as i remove the rear camber kit, is installing the nut easy? Is it simply just unscrewing on off the sides and slipping a nut in? or will i need an expert on install a nut. It's my first time ever missing around with camber kits.
You're also going to need another alignment after you're done. Just try and get the camber eyeballed close and take it in immediately.
Keep in mind one is right hand thread and the other is left hand thread. You might find the right hand thread at the hardware store but probably not the reverse thread. Try contacting skunk2 for replacement nuts.

Most likely correct. I forgot about that, but it should be obvious to anyone with the part in hard to look at.
