Hey guys, put my carli 2.5" springs in, attempted to follow up with alignment cams today. I have spc cams from icon. The arrow is supposed to face forward according to any info online I could barely find. Makes sense. How ever when I literally beat these things in the arrow is no longer straight ahead. Is that ok or as designed? I tightened the piss out of the castle nut after beating the cam in to just have enough room for one half of the cotter pin. Literally can't get tighter or get full pin in. What am I doing wrong?

I didn't see the pics earlier on my phone. It doesn't look like there is any other way it can go. I ended up taking mine back out and putting the stocks ones back and adjusting it with the one up offroad link arms. The aftermarket ones I put in seemed to make it look like the tire was leaning just a little bit.

Yeah these said adjust the camber also. I didn't like that. I plan to buy that ouo arms. They are not available right now in the store. Was trying to get it for now.

Not sure I'll get these back out though. Driver side really had to hammer to get in
