It did make it better, but something is still wrong for sure.

My new theory is that either my stock front swaybar links are loose and are messing with the alignment, or my camber bolts combined with the balljoints' effect on camber are screwing with my alignment, do either of those sound possible?

Either way, I am taking it in on Tuesday and will try to get to the bottom of this, once and for all.
The swaybar doesn't affect alignment at all, so it's not that. I also doubt it's got anything to do with camber. The problem is with the toe. Either the bumpsteer kit is not adjusted properly, or the toe is just off, or both.
