I'm gonna roll the stock wheels and hubcaps for a while. I might get wheels next year. I pie'd the upper 20 degrees because when laid out on the 26" tire with no z, The control arm is getting pretty close to vertical. I think that even with the pie cut it's pretty close to locking out the bj at full drop. the bj has a lot of travel downwards (lifting) so I wasn't worried about locking it out at full lift.

I got halfway shut down on the bagfest at work. the "little boss" came out and talked to me tuesday morning. The liability is oo great if something were to happen to me there while "on vacation". I can still work on it after 2:30 to 5, and saturday, I just can't be there for the eight hours in which I'm on vacation per day. Oh, well. sleeping in!

[RINGMASTER VOICE]COME ONE, COME ALL!! SEE THE AMAZING, INCREDIBLE, MINIMALLY CHANGING CAMBER!![/RINGMASTER VOICE]

I finished welding in my new raised and camber-corrected upper mounts, and my truck has 1.5 degrees of negative camber laid out, 1.5 negative thru 7 inches of lift, and 4 degrees negative at full lift. If I knew that I would be raising my uppers, I wouldn't have pie-cut them. It doesn't cause any issues, it it simply was unneccasary.
