Installed 2 1/2" Carli springs on my 18' 2500. Passenger side was 1" lower than driver's side. I adjusted the cam bolts basically pointing straight down and it fixed lean. My question though are the cam bolts near correct position? What position is anybody else's truck?

That’s not pictures... front axle, rear axle? Assuming front. And if you adjusted the control arms your truck alignment may be out now because you twisted your front axle out

This is what I was eluding to when I posted in the op’s other thread.
Cam bolts on the 2500’s are used to set the caster angle on the front axle.
Because it’s a solid front axle, you can’t adjust just one side, without putting things in a bind.

To the op, 2wd or 4wd?
I just assumed 4x4.
If it’s 2wd, moving the cam bolts in the lower arms will change the camber angle.
