Ball joint question
Out of spec Camber is not uncommon, even on new JK's driving off the dealers lot. Offset bj's can correct it, but many people are driving around with bad camber and no issues. Watch the tires for uneven wear just in case, but you should be ok.
One suggestion is to go up to JK Writeups, stuck right to the top is a good DW/Shimmy diagnosis thread. Go through it and check all of your frontend components just to see if you find anything worn/loose.
As noted above, the low caster (flightier steering) may be an issue you want to look at. Not that you have to correct it, if you don't feel that the steering is bad. If you choose to, Metalcloak arms are fairly popular, and I think two other mfg's came out with similar joints if you want options.
Also mentioned above is C Gussets. Bent c's are not all that uncommon, and can cause the camber to get worse. And worse. And worse. Many people feel that gusseting is 'cheap insurance'. Price the install and see what you think.
