camber kit vs. alignament kit .... what's the difference ?

well i have this dillema. i saw on www.tirerack.com that they use the term of alignament kit which sells for $75 and they reccomend it for lowered cars. from their explanations i saw that they will correct the camber on the rear of a car for +/-0.75 degrees. as far as i know the camber kit will adjust it like +/- 3 degrees. is that the only difference between those 2 ?

Thats kinda what I was thinking, but the aftermarket ones just have a little more adjustability..

i know about the washer part, but for the fron i heard the most insane thing from my dad telling me that actually moving the ball joint will correct the front camber. i dunno how he had it done back in Romania but it worked for 16 years after he had it done.
