I think he means the camber correction bushings that go on the ball joints. Moog makes them.

Hmm. Isn't alignment & Camber two different things, or is it all under "Alignment"?

its part of a full alignment, which is toe, caster and camber.

Seems like the alignment shop should be able to get those - if I remember right from my Bronco, there are different shims depending on how far off you are.

I think I'd try another alignment shop...

i agree i just put new springs in my 93 150 and the front end shop changed those bushings you could order them your self but how would you know if you getting the correct ones i go to shop that works on mostly lifted trucks you should find another shop keep in mind that it does get pricey to change those camber bushings here in jersey it will run any where from 150 to 200 go figure

Camber adjusts angle, tie rods adjust direction of travel in relationship to the other tire.

Don't let this happen to you!



OPPS! Wrong picture!
