Default 96 burb 2wd negative camber problem

Hi, I have a 96 suburban 2wd, I just finished installing a 4" Spindle kit from rough country in the front ( it originally had 2" coil spacers intalled) and a 4.5" block set in the back. When I finished the install I noticed allot of negative camber on my front wheels is this due to worn out upper ball joints ( I replaced both lower joints) or the shock being too short? If it helps when I drive around it feels like there is no suspension travel at all!!! Please help!!

When messing around with lifts and such with trucks, depending on a lift in the front or rear will set off your camber negative or positive. Some manufactures do develop cars with a slight negative camber because, the road is crowned. It isn't fully flat so they negative the camber in order to get a full on grip with the road. Roads are crowned for water run off.
