If you can't get your camber back to 0° then your not cranked high enough for a ball joint flip.

Well, I don't disagree....
I'm still %100 stock, excluding the AALs and the torsion keys... and I don't want to ruin my CV axles so I won't crank it past being level... its just not a fruitful modification to do UNLESS you need to regain some outward camber.
The end

Mine has yet to suffer any consequences from flipping mine and I drive the hell out of it. But like others have already stated, it's not really something to do with a stock truck, neither is aftermarket keys but none of us are saying anything to you are we?

As previously mentioned, the K3500's came that way from the factory. Obviously it can't be all bad.

K2500's came that way too, and yes it'll be all messed up if you're not cranked high enough to need it and of course you'll need a wheel alignment after doing it. As for a bill joint flip resulting in the catastrophic end of the universe? I doubt it.

but those are different trucks with larger front diffs.
the point im making is DO NOT FLIP YOUR BALL-JOINTS on your 1500... unless youre doing heavy, heavy suspension modifications.
i did mine, and had to redo it back to stock. =p

Just because it didn't work for you doesn't mean it won't work for everyone else, I don't have "heavy, heavy suspension modifications" and my truck dives just fine.
