This is hard to believe. The ball joint stem should be off center so 
that you can see the body of the joint moving around as you turn the 
stem. If it really doesn't move, then it must mean that the ball 
joint is made wrong and doesn't have any offset machined into the 
stem.

The other possibility is that the instrument you're using to measure 
the angle max's out at 2.5 deg and you're varying in a range that's 
somewhere above that. You could check that by rotating the bottom 
ball joint stem and see if that also produces no change.
