I am sure this has been covered before and I have searched and not really found the answer that I am looking for. I was wondering how bad out of alignment the front of my 94 Sport 4x4 is going to be when I put on the spacers/shackles? I heard that I could get a certian size of shim and install it myself to correct for this and where do these shims need to be installed? Also will the alignment be too far out to drive for a little while? And one last thing I would like to see some pics of explorers with this particular lift. I found some posts that were supposed to have pics but they were all red x's and the pic would not open. So if anyone could help me out here it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 






It will knock your camber off.. and it all depends.. If you alignment is perfect now, it won't be afterwards..

Camber does cause tire wear.. so don't drive long.. 1 week for me (300 miles) causes very noticable wear....

If your "lucky" you can get moog adjustable shims and then you can adjust it "close" yoruself.. but best bet is to just take it to someone and if possible have them put in the adjustable ones.. that way you don't need to buy them again unless you move the camber more positive than the adjustables can account for..(the adjustable work for most people, but not all)
