Tom,

Yes if the front shock mount is in a different location it will affect the
alignment. The workshop manual has a procedure to do a rough check of
camber using a plumb line. Also in the workshop manual there is a
procedure to reassemble the front suspension using 2" spacer blocks to set
the shock arms in position before tightening the suspension. Try this first
and then check the camber, it may not solve your issue but it is an
inexpensive first step.
