Help needed - Camber kit after 2"/2" Eibach installed


I had my Eibach kit installed (2"/2" drop) early last month, 2k7 Supercrew FX. The shop said I'd need a camber kit, but wanted me to wait 1.5k miles or so for the springs to settle...
My camber that day was:
-1.4 degrees (L)
-1.6 degrees (R)

Spec range is -1.0 0.6 degrees........

My question is what type of kit will I need, adjustment wise?

Please forgive my ignorance on this
Any help would be greatly appreciated...

I bought a Eibach camber kit and the guy laughed at me. You need to camber it yourself (theirs a word for it but dont know it). On your lower control arms you have 2 bolts on each side which have a factory setting on them where the you can slide the control arm in and out depend on which way you need to go. With the drop you will need the slide drill out towards the frame allowing you do get the control arms to go in more which will give you a good spec (dnt drill any bigger then the bolt or you will have big problems) Some on here may say no thats not what to do, but unless you want to chew the inners of your tires and get less then half the milege then you should drill all 8 lower control arm slides where the bolt sits.. Least thats what I had to do for my 24's to wear right
