1990 f-250 4" block lift

I have a 90 f-250 4x4 and it has a 2" block lift on it and I was wondering if I went to a 4" block lift if I would have issue with camber on the truck. Guy I got it from said I could use tie rods and alinement form 90 f-350 to fix the ware on the tires. Was wondering if anyone knows of someone doing this or a fix to my problem. Also and recommendations on providers for a 4" block lift. Thanks guys

Welcome to the forum. I hope this block is in the rear of the truck.

You are going to need drop brackets for your pivoting axles. The alignment will only get worse with more lift and won't be correctable without the brackets.

Or you will have to lift it more in the front with a full kit. Most 4" lift kits come with the brackets and all needed hardware to do it right. The brand is up to you, cost will be anywhere from $400 to $1000.

For example here is a 2.5 inch kit. (I have never ordered from this site.) This site also sells just the pieces of this kit like the brackets. Without seeing any pictures of your current setup it is hard to know what may be needed.

Ford F250 Truck Lift Kit 1988-1996 4x4 2.5" - Kits by Tuff Country - 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 - 22825K | SuspensionConnection.com

This site may also have what you need but again with limited info I cannot say 100% that it would work. Also not a site I have ever ordered anything from.

1980-1997 Ford F250 with 6 lift - Axle Pivot Brackets (pair) 4x4 [20856] | $224.06 | SD Truck Springs | Leaf Springs, Helper Springs and Suspension Parts

Good luck
