For my next repair on my catch up of previous owners lack of maintenance. I plan to get the front end setup correctly. Right now the camber appears to be off slightly. And since it appears to be off almost the exact same amount on both sides my guess is tired front springs.

/---\ of course the camber isn't remotely as bad as the ASCII pic. its only out a little, but enough to eat tires slowly.


If I purchase used front coil springs from a wrecker is there a way to determine if the springs are tired? short of putting them on my truck?

Or should I purchase those 1 inch coil spacers people put under the existing coils?
 
Coil springs are generally pretty long-lived. As long as they aren't all rusty (paint flaking off) I'd try the spacers or some washers.
