Just a couple more things.

1. When going to Autozone, make sure you get the ball joint separated and not the pitman arm. The pitman arm is a little to big and won't really wedge under the ball joint.

2. It is very hard to tighten the pivot bolt with the wheels on the ground. Don't tighten the brake bracket back. Put the wheels on, put the car on the ground. Reach around and tighten the pivot bolt. Raise it back up and tighten the brake bracket back in place.

3. You will need to jack up the hub to tighten the ball joint bolt back into place

It's very simple to do and I'm glad I didn't pay someone to do this.

Are there any DIY with pictures for the Ingalls rear camber kit? There are a couple of steps I am not quite sure about, that could be clarified by pics of the install or even if anyone has pics post install. Something that would show where the silver/black jam nuts fit in.

Yup, I'm digging this up from a grave but has anyone done a DIY for the Ingalls rear kit? Just got mine today and want to install it tomorrow when I get my rims...

Or is it just pull the old one out, set the new one to the same length, and pop it back in?

edit: Nevermind, i'll finger it out...

I'm pretty sure its as simple as you described it. You don't even need to mess around with ball joints..

It was definitely pretty easy to do, just swap them out. The only issue you *may* run into is that the bolts won't crack open, soak in PB blaster before you attempt to open them.
