I made the decision to skip the KMAC front camber kit this time around given the high cost of labor for pressing (additional $400). Kevin from KMAC explained the newly designed bushings could withstand the pressure during an alignment but I didn't want to ever deal with this again.
Even with the factory control arms, my indy was able to keep the negative camber in the front right around -1.0 while bringing the toe into factory spec so I'm happy with the results!
Lastly, I made the decision to go back to the middle dampening settings on the BC Racing coilovers as the truck was just too bouncy. So far I'm happy to report it was the right decision! We will see how the bottoming out analysis continues…

How many miles on your x5 when you changed the control arms?
