Default Front wheels leaning bad after lift

Hi I have a 1982 ford f150 and I just put a 6" lift kit on it an the wheels are leaning bad towards the top I know it needs an alignment but I know an alignment just adjusts the tow in and tow out. Please help

You need 2 of Moog K80109 Cam Bolt Kit, it lets you adjust caster/camber the most of any adjustable bushing, from -4 to +4.
Amazon was the cheapest with shipping that I could find Amazon was the cheapest with shipping that I could find
, only 47.08 to your door for both. Just loosen upper ball joint pinch bolt, use a screwdriver or something to pop the old bushing out, set these to zero (will have directions), run to alignment place and either pay them to turn it for you, or pay like $10 for a printout, take it home, use the graph that comes with them and set it to what you need. Total cost is less than an alignment if you get printout.

BTW most shops adjust caster/camber as well but unless you have the correct bushings they can only do stock vehicles.

I used BDS and they were about the same price. I never needed them I got by with my stock ones. I heard that Moog was bought out by a chinese company and I have read that their quality has gone down. Not sure though its just what I read

Uhhh,any alignment I ever got they adjusted toe and camber. You need an alignment after pretty much ANY lift /level.
