"(3) The camber angle should be adjusted as near as possible to the preferred angle. The caster should be the same at both sides of the vehicle. Refer to the Specifications chart."

Thanks for the help everyone!
Same thing happened to me.
Brought my dodge to one shop, and the alignment wasn't right, even though they were all fancy dancy computerized up.
Brought the dodge to a "Truck spring shop" that had one of those fancy dancy computerized gadgets, and the truck has been perfect ever since.

On my 4wheel drives I do my own. I have had so called alignment shops do mine and brought it home and redid it so it was right. So much for being lazy.
