Default Just went from 3/6 to 4/7 on my extended cab .. camber?

So I just went from a 3/6 coil flip combo to a 4/7 ..3 in spring 2 in spindle and flip with 1 in shackle Long story short noticed my rack leaking and a lot of suspension components slightly worn so replacing everything I already have the rack included with the inners also have the outer tire rods ,and lower control arms with balljoint (And yes I know I could just replace ball jointsand not the whole arm but it was only a little bit more) that just leaves me with the upper I'm wondering if I will heed the 2゚ offset or regular I never had Camber issues before with my 3 in coil and I heard spindle actually helps correct negative camber so I'm just curious what you guys think I just don't want to install the 2 degree offset and then be stuck to positive but I also don't want to install the regular one to be too negative but obviously neg is better than positive

I would do the upper arms with offset bushings.

Thank you I mean that was my original plan but now everybody and their bomb is saying they have 4 in straw in the front and have absolutely no Cambria shoes so the last thing I want to do is install the non returnable arms and then have positive camber and then have to order different bushings or arms and pay for another alignment
