Default lowering question

i have a 3/5 kit i was wonder if i needed djm control arms? i have spc camber bolts.
also how much will my springs sag?

i messaged the seller and he said i didnt need djms or spc camber bolts, but i can clearly see that i needed camber bolts because i have negative camber, i am getting ready to move and the truck is already in the location where i am moving, 5000 km away and i havnt seen it in a year, so i wanna have all the proper things for it when i get there

The truck should go to an alignment shop to be put back into factory spec. Thowing a camber eccentric at something you dont know the required degree eccentric for is pointless and most likely you will still need an alignment after that. Not to mention this is not even getting into the toe or caster as well.
