Front End Troubles

i have read through most of the forums and have not seen the problam I have with my truck. Here it is my front axle (i have a 4X4 99 year model) has problams with the front camber (king pin angle). i have taken it to the dealer several times with no luck fixing also taken it to a few other shops who told me to replace the track back wich i did but i still have a lot of negative camber on the driver side and positive on the pasenger side.
Things that i have done that might affect this is a 2" rancho lift 4 new control arms and a double front shocks(this is by far the best mod i have done to this truck gives a great ride). My truck also has a front bumber that is made of steel tubing (people from south Texas know what i am talking about) as a well as a Warn 15000lb wench.
I have had trouble getting any one to help with this problam any help ideas would be greatly apriciated.

D60 on the Dodge doesn't have king pins. Find a good alignment shop and tell them you need alignment cams in the upper ball joints. Probably cost you about $100/side to have them put in.

As long as the ball joints are good, this will fix you right up.
