Default Upper control arm extension

Trying to find someone who might sell some type of extension that goes between the upper arm and spindle. I installed a 3" coil spacer and it threw the angles off. Its a 2001 F150 2WD. Thanks

Ball joint spacers are extremely dangerous and under no circumstances would I feel right recommending them, and nobody should for that matter. Really you need longer knuckles

I'd check that set up again. I have 3" spacers on my 2WD. Everything went back together like it should have. Put on a camber kit, had it aligned and I've been good for nearly 3 years.
