I have a rebuilt dana 60 on the front of my jimmy that has a camber issue on the passenger side.
When i bought this axle I was told it has a adjustable ball joint kit.
The bottom king pin has a plate with a large nut above the grease zert that i have not seen on a dana 60 before.
I have been unable to find any information on a adjustable ball joint or king pin kit for a dana 60.
So my question is can you adjust the camber on a 60?
 
Sounds like you already have an adjustable lower king pin. Iirc, the dowel on the inside that goes into the bearing is offset and you adjust it with the nut. The only other alternative I know of is a wedge shaped shim between the spindle and knuckle.
 
Honestly, no. I don't know about your area but the shops around here would see 4wd and immediately start making reasons to either a) no work on it or b) jack the price up until you go away.
 
I know what you mean. Hopefully some one knows a link on how to adjust it or who makes the kit so i can do it myself.
