Alright, so today I got the truck aligned once and for all. Back in spec at a perfect 0.0 degrees on both sides. I'll scan the sheet later when I get time. Wasn't a problem at all, so I'm happy. New brakes this coming week, I have nooooneeeee.

draft: so u put the adjusters in and got it aligned? what is the part number for them at napa? or should i just get off my butt and go ask napa?? 
should i just put the adjusters in myself and then get it aligned or let the shop do it? i do have the ability to do it myself, just never done it before,i would have to look at it for a min.

Shop had the adjusters for me, was $90 for 2 alignments and adjuster installs. (one alignment when I posted that other sheet, and this one). Just get off your ass and take a ride down to NAPA. 
You could put them in yourselves easily enough, but I just didn't have the time nor motive to do so.
BTW, I love this shop, getting Brembo drilled all around with Hawk pads for $600 installed (you MIGHT get a set for an axle for $600), boy do they love me. I know the owner extremely well and all the workers there, almost get carried away alot talking to them.

Honestly, right now I'm just trying to get things fixed and back in order. The vibration up front out of camber was too much to handle anymore, so I broke down, called in late to work and did it. My pads have 10% on them, rotors needed to be machined (was going to cost $400 anyways), so I don't mind putting down for some better ones. I've had this money saved up to be ready for stuff like this, I know it's all coming. Next thing I gotta do is get a new grille shell or something, the one I have is so trashed and hardly has any paint on it anymore. Just maintenence now. Right now I'm working my butt off trying to make sure I have enough if I have a tranny problem coming near, since I can't afford it on credit, I've cancelled the phone line here in the house for a few months (we all have cells, roomates that is) and cutting down on power/all that.
Thanks for the compliments, though. =]
