I would think that if you put it back together the way it came apart, with all the spacers, etc., where they were originally, you should be fine for a short distance. I can't imagine that it would be that far off. I could be wrong, tho, so hopefully someone else can chime in with the correct info if I am.

Eccentrics should be about the same position as the other side. Just match it up.
You could put a level against the wheel and set it close enough to 0* camber, might get a pull from incorrect caster, but it wont eat the tires.
Next time take note of the eccentrics before you tear it apart
