Adjusting front camber - how to...

Hey guys,
I want to adjust the camber by 1 or 2 degrees on the front only.
Is it a difficult job or can it be done at home (without being on a lift)?
Also, will adjusting the camber mess around with the toe?

Cheers, Daniel

Changing the camber will change the toe.
You need a reliable way to measure the alignment and, though it can be done "in the field" with some pretty simple tools, it takes quite a bit of experience to get the hang of it.

Unless you are planning to be almost constantly adjusting your alignment and you have access to a shop that can, from time to time, check your work, I suggest you just pay a pro to do what you want done.
