one of my shocks is blown(leaking)
Would this cause my tire to camber like this.
its the clutch side

Your upper arm controls the camber...id have to say that there is more then likely another problem.

your frame could be tweaked and the one side might have to be adjusted more.

toe is also affected by the camber angles.it looks like from the pics. that the toe might be out(negitive) to far.but something elso may also be the problem.

it needs to sit on level ground and not everything has to be adjusted the same......manufactuering differences could affect this also....

I have the same problem but without the blown shock I'd say I have a bent spindle cause i didn't notice it till after i caught a tree. wasn't going fast but it was enough to throw it off.

its no big deal mine does it a little because i hit 2 tractor tires at a race at about 4th gear pinned, i think its just the arm on my spindle maybe a little bent
