01 XLT Sport,
Any time you modify your vehicle, it can affect the resale. You will be limiting your potential buyers, but if it's done right, it could also increase the value. It just might take a little longer to find the right buyer. My theory has alwyas been that I buy a vehicle for myself and let it express a little about my personality. Personally, I can't stand stock.

I would check around and find an alignment shop (or a reputable tire shop) that maybe has done alignments on lowered vehicles. Sounds like some pretty outrageous prices that you have paid.
When I replaced my tires here recently, I had Les Schwab Tire Store do an alignment and they also installed the kit. My total bill was $109.00 for the alignment and the kit installed.
I would think the Roush kit comes with the camber kit. I would say it is definitely time to find a new shop though. Good luck.

definately find a new shop..yeas the cam bolts came with the kit but they are a ford part in a ford package so you can get them from the dealer... or try http://www.fordpartsnetwork.com they can get you the parts cheap.. i would find a smaller shop that maybe does custom work near you they are much more accomodating...also for the resale issue if your trading in they like a strickly stock truck that they can turn over quickly...
