ReadyLift 1.5" Block on Rear- Do I need to get an alignment ??
ReadyLift 1.5" Block on Rear- Do I need to get an alignment ??
I have a questions for ya fellas.... If I installed a 1.5" ReadyLift block on the rear... do I need to align the rear if my truck is a 4X2?
Reason I ask is because I have had major threadwear issues since I installed a
2" leveling kit on the front and a 1.5" lift block on the back.... I wanted to know if I need to align the back as well since I've only aligned the front.
Interesting point to throw in here is that at one point my DriveShaft needed to be lubricated at the dealership because FORD forgot to lubricated at the factory, which makes me wonder if maybe FORD forgot to align the rear axle at the Factory also and that is why I'm having threadwear problems because the rear is making the steering compensate for not being aligned. What do ya all think?

the axle alignment could be an issue, however I would think the springs would hold it pretty true. It is also a solid rear axle with no way to get an alignment like you would on the front, that i am aware of. Maybe others will be more help..
There are alignment pins on the axles and springs when you install the rear blocks. As long as they are properly lined up during installation the axle should be straight.
Like FX4life said, there's no way to align the rear axle like there is for the front.
