Rear Camber Kit Choices

I've been reading a lot of back and for about Ingalls, good about the replacement bushings, but nothing about the camber plates.
So, here we go. My camber is F'd. Straight up. Horrid tire wear due to terrible camber, and toe. I own a 1990 AWD which means that my set up is completely different from you 2G owners. What I'm looking for are the pros and cons to all three, and if anyone has used either.
The Ingalls rear camber kit, the rear camber adjustment kit from DME, and RRE's camber adjustment plates which the links to each kit can be found below.

The one thing that I'm having a hard time buying is the Ingalls kit. It's expensive, I've heard bad reviews on it (too thin, breaks easily, not worth the money in comparison to the DME kit), on the flip side, the DME kit seems to be just some bolts and bushings, all for $55.00 no matter where you go. I've read good things about this kit though, it's somewhat of a shitty install if you haven't the tools, but overall, not that bad for the price. The camber plates from RRE I haven't heard a thing about, but you do get all four plates for the front and the rear and can constantly adjust the camber on the fly, but at the same time, you really need to get the toe fixed after any adjustment.
Give me some reviews on which to purchase. I've got about a 2" drop on KYB GR-2s and unknown springs. My camber out back is horrid, so bad that metal is finally showing (settle down now, I'm poor and finally have the money to get the alignment done and purchase one of the kits).
So which is it? The Ingalls, the DME, or the RRE since these are apparently the only kits available for us 1G guys.
Personally, I'm leaning a little more towards the Ingalls kit since I can do the swap easily enough, the DME kit, though a hell of a lot cheaper, I can't do since I don't have the tools for it. The RRE kit, though expensive, allows me to adjust the camber of all four wheels, with the draw back of having to bring it in for the toe.

Those GR2s must be shot.
I heard maximal performance or something like that makes something.
