buy daizens bushing kit and mill new slotted sleeves for the upper arms-- mill the bushings internally to 1", then mill 1" bar stock with a slot instead of a single bolt hole--
I milled sleeves with a slot that left only 1/8 on each side -- so a 3/4 slot--
That gives about .5 deg either way-- if you use 1.25 or even 1.5 you could achieve as much as 1 deg extra
I had one shop complain that they couldn't achieve the stock specs -- spent 3 months messing with them trying to get the right setup-- finally went somewhere else, and they hit the nail on the head the first try-- 0 camber, 4 deg caster-- 1mm toe in-- perfect (almost-- the caster is a bit high but it works great)
