Hi,

I have an 03 two wheel drive. It has the top of the left hand front
tire leaned out by a degree or two. It is wearing the outside edge
of the tire. Toe is good.
Does this front end have adjustable camber?
It looks like maybe the top A arm has adjustment but I don't want
to loosen things until i had a better idea.

Thanks.

Don't try to align it yourself. Take it to an alignment shop.

I fully agree because when you change chamber on that style front end
you also effect caster and toe in as well

The tolerance on this is very tight, plus or minus less than 1/8 inch, and
making it at home is difficult. Having said that, you should be able to see
an ecentric on the lower control arm that will move the bottom of the tire
in or out.
