What was the length eye to eye when you put them in if you look at WOL wright up it said to put them at 18 1/2 stock is 18 3/4. I have the same set up as you just put it in last sat and set my UCA at 18 1/2 and its driving good I am tacking it to a alignment shop tomorrow to cheek the caster and make sure my axles are centered. After their done I get under their and measure as close as I can to give you a stating point so you can figure it out from their.
I followed WOL's write up and measured 18 1/2" from center to center. Then itook it to the alignment shop and I don't know if they changed it but my printout stated 4.1.....but i did tell them that I wanted my caster at +6 to +8 but they said my caster was good and that I only had 3-4 threads left on the UCA's

The cambolts that I got with my RC lift are pretty much crap. I wouldn't waste my time using them (AND cutting out the metal tabs to install them). I could never get them completely equal, and they tended to shift.
I eventually just got a set of adju front uppers and it solved my flighty steering problem.

But regardless of what your caster is currently set at, I haven't seen you mention how it actually drives? Flighty? Bump steer? Or does it handle similar to stock? If the handling is good, don't worry about the +6 to +8...
