Camber is an alignment issue that needs to be dealt with of IFS vehicles only. The Jeep JK Wrangler has a soild front axle and therefore a lift will not and cannot effect or change your camber.

adjustable arms are required to change castor, not camber... the only way your wheel could be off is if there is something between the mounting surface and the wheel or your lugnuts arent tight.

i know, but when i'm in front of the jeep, it look like have camber problem.

A solid axle can have also camber, if the axle was rotated (caster), because the angle between the upper and lower ball joint.
