I've always been told that the only time you can't bring an alignment into spec is when something is "bent" or "worn" to the point that alignment isn't your worst problem anymore.
My alignment guy checks for worn suspension parts, for example, and he checks that the four wheels are aligned to each other because that's not something he could change if it wasn't.
With respect to one side having worse camber, do the 4Runners require a given weight in any particular location (often the driver's seat) like the German cars do, in order to set a give preload on the suspension?
In some German cars, for example, it's 500 pounds of weight, so it's not something that is puny.
