Skyjacker 2" lift & positive camber issue

[choppers_rule]

Hey guys,
I'm a newbie in a 4x4 world. I had just installed a 2" lift kit (coils & add leaf) on my 1984 Ford Ranger 4x4 and the front tires have 3 degree positive cambers.

The alignment shop told me that the oversize camber bushings will only set the positive cambers to 2 degree. I thought the camber bushings would be able bring my alignment close to specs

What do I need to do to get the front alignment back to specs?

Thank you.

If the alignment can't be brought to spec with camber/caster bushings, then you will need to get a set of dropped axle brackets for it (and possibly radius arm brackets too if the caster angle is also out of spec).

This may require you get a dropped pitman arm at the same time to keep your steering linkage angle correct.

Hope that helps.
