Default Camber on wheels out

So I cranked my torsion bars today getting an extra 2" on the front. But once I was done I saw the camber of my wheels had gone from l l to \ /

Now I figured something like this would happen since obviously I'm changing angles in my front end. But I'm just curious about where the camber adjuster is on the Dakotas. I've only glanced since I noticed it but I'm assuming the adjuster will be located behind the rubber plugs on the crossmember where the control arm mounts to the frame. I do have access to an alignment machine so fixing it won't be a problem but knowing where the adjuster is will make life easier.

Thanks guys

You can't see the bad angle on the tires but heres the truck with the front end leveled.

Cool. Looks good.

You will need to get it alingned. The alingment adjustment for caster and camber is done by adjusting the upper control arm mount.
