Greg,
I changed the holes where the upper ball joint attaches to the arms -- moved
them in a quarter inch, got lots of camber.  Needed to do this because
previous owner had welded in the lower brackets.  My fix works fine, but the
inner hole is a little sloppy as it is on the diagonal surface of the a-arm.
