OK I installed a lift on my 2dr jk 3 weeks ago and I was gonna wait awhile to have it aligned to give it time to settle n what not well the other day I noticed my tires starting to cup so I took it to the local tire shop this morning and they said my caster was way off so he fixed that but also my drivers front tire had .5° of camber pointed in on top the guy said some jeeps are that way or I hit a bump n tweaked the axle a little bit but he said he can put a offset ball joint in to correct it for $275 for parts and labor both has anybody had the similar problem?

Yeah, everyone and their mother running bigger tires have camber on their front wheels. If you don't have c-gussets installed, I would do that before spending any money on off set ball joints. Otherwise, your axle c's will just continue to bend and your ball joints will have just been a waste. And, truth be told, over time, your axle tubes will start bending where they meet at the diff and, you will have camber again. Only thing that will fix that is a new ProRock 44 front axle.

Ya I told him just to fix the caster maybe before I get my new tires I can gusset it all up and get the camber corrected
