Coil Spring Spacers

Thanks for quick response. Yes, I will be installing Warrior shackles on the rear at the same time to keep the balance.

Today I put in Warrior shackles on rear and F150 coil spring spacers in the front. Looking at the truck from the front, I now have significant positive camber (the tops of the wheels are leaning out). Can that much alignment be done to correct it back to OEM specs?

It really depends on your drop brackets for the TTB, and the size of alignment shims you have. Alignment can be done, but you may need to purchase aftermarket alignment adjustment shims. The MOOG parts are about $15 a piece. 2.75* is reccommended.
 






hey gearhead, check my pics by clicking on the signature...i believe you might need lift brackets and tranny bracket and bent ra's and did you change your pitman?...that is if your front end looks like mine did...they put 2.75 in on mine and i still need to drop it...
 






All I did was the rear shackles and coil spring spacers in the front, nothing else. However, my positive camber is no where near as extreme as your photo #3! I guess I am fortunate. I know someone that is a Ford tech at a dealership; he is the one that got me the spacers. He is going to take it in to check alignment. Thanks to all that responded for your help.
 






well i started with stock 2" over springs and wanted to max out what i had stock...i added custom tig welded shackles 8" o.c. in the rears over my aal's...i got my truck where i am happy and now i just half to dial the front in...i was thinking about going up 1" :scratch: more cause she sits level with my f250, lol
