2008 Suburban 4x4 lift kit problem.

[Gabonzo]

So I have a 2008 Suburban.

A 6" Fabtech lift kit was removed from a different 2008 Suburban and it was installed on mine.

The problem is that it has positive camber. Even with the camber bolts all the way toward the frame, bottomed out in the grove, it still has positive camber. The tops of the tire stick outward way too far. The aliment shop could not align it. The Fabtech lift kit, struts, upper and lower control arms EVERYTHING was taken from the other Suburban, no mix matched suspension parts from two vehicles - everything was swapped. The neither Suburban originally had alignment issues.

Sitting on the tires, cant get 0 camber.
Front end off the ground with suspension relaxed: Cant get 0 camber.

I would be open to suggestions. How do I fix the camber?

Thanks.

I have the same lift and I actually have it stretched as far as I can go while still maintaining alignment mine is sitting around 8.5-9” of lift
The stock upper control arms should work if it’s set to 6” but if not some extended upper control arms would probably get you straightened out.
I run the fabtech uniball upper control arms on mine the uniball has more travel then a traditional ball joint so you can run it at more of a angle
The cheapest place I could find the fabtech arms were on Amazon I got them for a Silverado it may be hard to find them for a “suburban” but the suspension is the same up front so Silverado arms will work no problem
