Is it necessary to install camber bolts up front with a 2 inch lift?

Mine had them and used them but either way alignment was off

You mind as well get them and install them before the alignment. Something about later model Nissan trucks in that they seem to be off on the camber on the driver's side front an awful lot. Get the Nissan camber bolts as they are much better quality that the aftermarket. Part numbers are in the sticky I posted at the top of this forum.

I have the camber bolts for the front but damn those bolts are a pain to get out. That's why I just wanna leave it because I'm taking my pathfinder to the shop for an alignment.

My Pathy still drives straight but alignment is still not in the green

Well, if the camber or caster is out of spec, they'll need the bolts installed. So, leave them with the truck and let them install them if they need to adjust the camber/caster. If they don't need them, there's no issue. However, keep in mind that it's not uncommon for those bolts to seize into the control arms and have to be cut out and the control arms replaced.
