I put 2 inch coil spacers on my 1996 Ford F-150 a couple days ago. I took it to a local shop to get it aligned because my front tires are bowed in. I left it there for 3 hours and went to go get it and they told me they couldn't get it aligned. I think they're just too lazy to fool with it cause I know a lot of people who have these coil spacers so they've obviously had to have gotten an alignment. Do I need to take it to another shop or get adjustable camber bushings or just take them off? Cause the shop said it would be 4-5 hundred dollars to do and I know that's not right.

Moog K80109, you need two, one for each side. If you order them from amazon they are like $20 ea and you'll get free shipping. I put 824's on instead of the spacers and eyeballed everything. Been good for 6+ months now. I just kept adjusting them till I got the rotor level and both sides same distance from the rear tire, (rotor)--------(tire), I did have to readjust them once after my first drive because I didn't have enough caster to make the wheels straighten by themselves after a turn. This will work for you so long as your toe is correct.

I was going to set them to 0* and get a printout from the alignment shop then make adjustments from that, but they wanted over $40 to pull it onto the lift and print me out a piece of paper, $25 and I would have, but to me $40 for paper and ink with 2 minutes of labor was ridiculous, so like I said I just used a level and a tape measure and can't complain

Thanks for the help. I'll post back once I get it figured out.

Well finally got an alignment. NTB hooked me up but for a really expensive price. My alignment is still a tad off but not enough to where it is going to mess up my ball joints or anything so all in all it can be done.

Sits 1/4 inch higher in the front. Definitely worth doing.
