1. tuck that camera under the bumper edge like Rubber is saying.
2. The spacers create bind on the upper balljoint which may be your popping issue?
3. Yes the Caster can be fixed. the upper strut mount is the main adjuster and the lower control arm is the "swing into postiion" adjuster. You have pletny of room for adjustement. I'd get an alignment and see if it stops the clunking. Caster adjustments are suppose to be easily done. if the shop forces something they are doing it incorrecty.
4. Driving with the caster like that is not good for the tires and can also cause erratic driving conditions and cause the truck to loose control. Out of adjustment camber issu'es generally are found on crashed vehciles....fyi..... Can cause the truck so start swaying from front to back as if you were pulling a trailer with all the wieght to the back. Very dangerous situation.
5. Yes your camber is off as well, but it's your caster that is of concern here. Caster causes your higher lower issue due to the way it's designed. That is why it's so dangerous when mis-aligned
