Okay I took a ton of photos after school today. I really hope someone can chime in with a solution.

Had an alignment done a couple weeks ago and they could not get the camber and close than what it was at the time due to wheels I had having too much positive offset. Since then I have added -12 offset and now I have room to work. I don't mind taking it back for another alignment but no sense wasting money if I cannot get it any closer than it is. Alignment was +3.4 on left and +2.4 on right. According to the printout the normal range is +.2 to +1.2

Knockouts are out and cam bolts are all the way back. I don't know what else to do to get this camber closer to where it is supposed to be. I am worried I am going to wear my tires out in no time.

Shots of the truck sitting with weight on the tires:
Level is perfectly straight up and down touching the top of tire on drivers side. The gap at the bottom is the tire leaning out.

Level is perfectly straight up and down touching the top of tire on passenger side. This side is a little worse than the drivers.

Now with truck jacked up. Jack is on the crossmember lifting truck up both sides together:
Again level is straight up and down. Bottom came out a little.

Shots with drivers side tire off and knuckle hanging. Looks like UCA is hitting the stop and that is what is holding it up.

Jackstand under the frame now and jack on the lower ball joint nut. Jacked it up until I started to lift the truck off the jackstand and all the weight was on the knuckle.

Flip your upper ball joints. Bolt them on bottom of a- arm instead of on top. It gives you more room to work with and gets the arm off the stops .

Crank you torsion bars up a little bit. It will change the angle of the uppers and allow for some more adjustment. Look at your cv's, they're going up from the diff to the wheel, usually they're angled down. Your bars aren't cranked up enough.
