I'm building a 30 coupe hotrod,using a 32 front axle.The camber is visibly off on the passenger side and may be slightly off on the drivers side.What would be the correct camber angle.I know this is not a hot rod forum ,and it may rub some people the wrong way,but this is a very traditional hot rod/high boy,39 drive line ,39 brakes, 8Ba engine,30 coupe body chopped 3 inchs,all sitting on a 30 frame with a 3 inch step in the back.I have been lurking on this site for quite some time and have a lot of respect for the people who are on it.
Thank you

Get your alignment guy to check whether the axle is out of camber spec on the PS from a "normal" mis-bend inboard of the spring perch, or if it's outboard of the spring perch. A "visible" angle is probably due to an inside the perch bend. The right guy with a set of Twin I-beam Ford tooling can correct either. His clamp point on the bend will be off center and one bend or push can correct both sides. Bend it cold.
