    Even though they may be the same loosened are they the same height(side vs side)? Otherwise bad bushings or frame/control arm/hub damage may be part of it.

    They are the same height on both sides. So it could be the bushings or wheel bearings

    bad control arm bushings, wheel bearings, ball joints, or camber shims may have fallen out. check all those areas.

    less (or no) shims will cause more positive camber. more shims will cause negative camber. depending on your wheel and tire size, drop, and other suspension component conditions, your camber conditions may be amplified.
