How to adjust camber on 1993 F-150 4X4?

Answer 1

if you are still running stock size tires and you are in need of a camber adjustment you most likely need ball joints as there realy is no adjustment of camber or caster from the factory. most folks when doing any mods (lift or tire size change) or maintenance on these frontends will install camber adjustment sleaves/bushings in the top ball joints when doing so. they cost from $80 -$120 a set and require compleat disassembly of the stearing spindle/knuckle assembly and you will need to replace all four ball joints at this time anyway as you will distroy them taking it all apart. while your at it it would be foolish not to replace all three u-joints in the half shafts with greasable ones as the will only cost you about $17 each and to do them requiers the full disassembly you have already performed. if you choose to do this project the best place to get the part would be rockauto.com you will save about $100 in total on name brand parts. "moog ball joints and precision u-joints". also replace the knuckle to spindle seals, they are about $14 each and will be shot too. you will need a press to do this job or take the knuckles to your local shop to have them press the old balls out and the new ones in. after its all done you will need an alignment. i am doing this job now on my 97' f-250 and i can tell you all 4 ball joints, 3 u-joints and the 2 knuckle seals from rockauto.com shipped to me was $260 i chose not to install the camber adjustment sleaves as that was not a problem with my 1997 f-250. as i was doing all of this do to the fact i was changing my gear ratio from 4:10 to1 to a more mileage friendly 3:55 to 1. i hope all this typing helps someone. any further questions feel free to email me jeff njcableguy@comcast.net
