New to the forum deal but I have a 97 f150 xl swb and just installed a set of Daystar 2" coil spacers to level my front end and it threw off my camber by what looks like about 3 to 5 degrees, I know Ford screwd up on these trucks by basically making the UCA unadjustable so should I get 3.5 lift spindles or go with extended UCAs? I know I'll need new shocks too they're maxed out and when i hit the other side of railroad tracks faster than 15 it's like hitting a brick wall. Any opinions on what i can do would be appriceated and maybe brands so i can look up prices and what not. Thanks guys

 

Don't know but when I got my daystar level I had to get a caster camber kit from NAPA to get it back to where it was.

 

Okay cool. Was it just the new cam bolts for the UCAs?

 

I honestly couldnt tell you man, my friend did the work. But it did let me get back to alignment. All I did was call Napa and tell them I needed a caster camber kit because of aftermarket parts and they got me what I needed. You might call around.

 

Thanks buddy

 

Some trucks need the bolts. My truck aligned right back up after installing 3" coils.

 

Good looking truck by the way!

 

I wish it always worked that way. Thank you though. I've never been a Ford guy but its a hell of a little truck. Was going to keep it stock, how I bought it a few weeks ago but now It's a new toy AND a work truck. Hah

 

You didn't really specify, Is this after an alignment?

 

any suspension change with the exception of lift spindles will throw off your camber. you're going to need those cam bolts that bolt on your upper A arm. napa has them for about $40. then get your alignment

 

Exactly what he said^.
