I just flipped my upper control arms and that fixied my prob. now i have about 1\2 to 1 inch gap.

when you say flipped.what does that mean?
Here is a picture. A buddy of mine told me how to do this. I just took the drop spindles and drilled out the upper ball joint hole to a 5/8 size and then take the right upper control arm and flip it over and put it on the left side running the ball joint through the bottom with the nut now on top. this pushes the spindle farther out when the truck is layed out. if you do this with drop spindle it will almost get rid of all negative camber you might have..

My ball joint is not in any kind of bind what so ever. this too is my daily driver but it hasnt made it back on the road yet. i dont think i will have any issues with it.
