Is camber adjustable?

I recently fitted new wheels, tyres and suspension to my solid axle hilux. When I got the wheel alignment checked, toe in was good, caster was good, but my right front wheel was leaning out (camber, +ve, -ve?) almost 1 degree. Why would this be?

Can camber be adjusted on this front end? is there a camber kit that can be fitted?

1 degree is nothing, toyota allow for one degree of bend from factory on there new cruisers which in turn creates the camber that you are talking about.

I personally wouldnt worry till it got to about 3 and then you know you have one bent front diff.

yeah now that you say that i think thats why the early yj's 93-96 and the explorers need the front ends resetup, they are designed and made for the american market, hense left hand drive.
