Good news, The alignment guy said he could put in shims and get it straight for $150.00 out the door. So I think I'm going to let him. Is that high or good?

I would say that if he truely knows what he's doing and how to properly align a TTB front end, that may be a fair price including materials.

Did you get the springs from a 4x4? I have an 83 Ranger 4x4 with a winch and an 96 F150 excab 4x4. Thinking about getting leveling springs for the F150 and putting old F150 springs on the Ranger.

No I think it was a 2x, the spacers where right there to but I didn't think I needed them. They where attached to something, I think the radius arm.

He said that was everything including the shims.

Gotcha, be prepared for the camber disaster! He said it was out about 3degrees. It looks like a baha If you drive it before you get it lined up, it will kill the tires in about a week.

Thanks man.
He said he thought when he fixed my camber that it would fix the scrubbing. If not I'm cutting the fenders and I'll let you know on the trim.
