Leveling kit on now HORRIBLE camber!

[brinker88]

Has anyone with TTB suspension had this much neg. camber? Its at LEAST 2.5-3 degrees off! They are rough country 1.5" leveling coils. I netted 2.5 inches lift. Does this seem right? I do beleive I need an alignment though lol. These pics are with the full weight of the vehicle on it.

Looks right to me. Now go get an alignment.

Just like you would with just about any other IFS.

He doesn't have IFS

TTB = IFS

Anything where the 2 tires up front aren't connected like a solid axle, unable to move indivdually, is IFS.

Its a variation of ifs, yes. Looks right after a leveling kit, just like mine did. Though I adjusted the camber bushing and lengthen the TREs by hand before I drove it to the alignment shop, just so it looked a little more pleasing. Shouldn't be a big deal if alignment shop is close though.

Okay thanks guys, much appreciated. I SASed my F250 because I didnt wanna screw with the TTB. Didnt wanna go that big with the ranger so....now I know lol

Ok I've always referred to 83-97 Rangers as TTB and 98+ Rangers as IFS

Agreed, you should be able to bring that into spec if you haven't done anything with it yet and it was stock before.
I think I'm seeing a little sidewall flex in your tires too, which means it's "pinching" your suspension a little which would cause it to sit artificially high (this should be eliminated when the tires are resting on the movable plates on an alignment rack).

To distinguish between them I always call an IFS what it is... TTB or SLA IFS... or simply A-arm IFS (SLA = Short Long Arm).

I was just trying to portray that it wasn't just a TTB thing, SLA or however you want to split hairs will still usually require an alignment after the springy part of the suspension has been played with.

Tires were low on air. Alignment should be done tomorrow or the next day. Thanks for all the helpful comments.

PS....that is positive camber, not negative.

That's how mine looked but to make things easier when aligning I still put Tuff Country adjustable drop brackets on.

Who did you get them through? I've only found them for F150s
