Camber problems

I've had the AC lift,added the 3/4 inch spacers last summer.Ever since the spacers were put on,I havent been able to get the alignment to spec,the tops of the tires stick out,even with the camber adjusting bolts in.The third alignment shop I went to offered to grind out the holes in the struts,allowing the tops of the tires to be brought in enough to stop my tires from wearing funny.I said I'd think about it..but what I really need to know is if anyone else has done this,and if so,any side effects??? It seems like a simple fix,but simple things seem to get complicated when lifting a truck. Thanks for any info!!!

Yes enlarging the hole is another way to get by. Maybe Dean or someone has some pics.

You just need to let your springs settle more. I have the AC lift and 1" spacers on mine with camber bolts in both holes and there is pleanty of adjustment. Its just cause you're ac lift hasn't completly settled yet. Unless something is kinda funky. You could try adding some washers inbetween the body and the spacer on the outside edge to bring the strut angle back into the factory range.
