Camber Bushing after leveling Ranger

[Sinx53]

I am planning on leveling the Ranger with either the leveling coils or the coil spacers. The question at hand is that everywhere I read it says that the camber bushing must be at 0 degrees before I can level it with the springs or spacers. The last time my truck was aligned they had to put different camber bushing in to align it. If that is the case is my truck at the 0 degrees?? and if not can I still do this lift and just get another set of camber bushings with more adjustability??

I am not trying to hijack your post here, but I have the same questions. I do know that www.rockauto.com has an assortment of different camber bushings made by Moog. Mostly what I don't know is if you can tell if you need them without being on an alignment rack?

And yes, from what I understand, if the place that did your alignment put the right bushings in, you should be fine. When I had my Explorer done, Big O actually made me a printout that had all of that information on it. If you still have paperwork from your alignment, it may tell you what it is at on there.

What bushings are needed depends on the ride height your suspension sits at, which varies between trucks, even when stock.

Chances are you'll need bushings somewhere around 2° after you level it, but the only way to know for sure is to check where your adjustments are at now and see how much adjustment you have left that you can go (measure how far off the ground your axle beam pivot bolts are in relation to the centerline of your wheel hubs. Generally you can go 2" above the hub centerline with the pivots (4WD models) and still be able to align the camber & caster properly).
