Why do all four wheels have positive camber?
Dedicated off-road vehicles and agricultural vehicles have positive camber because it reduces steering effort. Camber problems usually show up as handling or tire wear problems. Usually, all four wheels will feature some negative camber, and a vehicle will tend to pull to the side that has the most positive camber.
What kind of bolts are used to adjust camber?

What’s the best way to adjust camber angle?

Where are the shims on a camber liveabout?
Turn-buckle joints are usually limited to rear multi-link suspensions but are sometimes found on front wishbone suspensions. Shim adjustments are usually found in front suspensions but can be in almost any application. To correct solid axles on rear suspensions, the aftermarket offers shims that offset the entire wheel bearing and hub assembly.
