I just put c824 springs on my 2wd 4.9l and it leveled it out real nice, gonna wait a couple days to let em settle then ill align it. The camber is a little positive but not nearly as bad as I thought....Ill start a thread with pics when I get back to my laptop

Thanks str8sixman, I'd really like to see what I should expect as soon as I install the spacers or springs. Before the alignment.

And about how much would a alignment run w/ camber adjustments?

I paid $356 for my front end alignment and camber adjustments but that was at the stealership lol I went their because the backyarder mechanic who did my alignment before had a hard time and the tires sagged like this /--\ lol A 1" -2" lift/level probably won't need the camber adjustments.
