2 degrees is a bit much... especially for H & R

and its not uncommon to have uneven camber.. just not by that much.. i think mine are .08 and 1.2 in the rear...

The camber might have screwed up even before the new springs are in, such as from hitting a big pothole.

-2 isnt that bad..doesnt the factory spec allow -1.6? .4 of a degree isnt much. The thing that will kill you more than anything is the toe. What did it end up being?

Either the alignment machine was improperly installed or you had a camber issue before the drop. The H&R springs shouldnt have given you -2
