adjustable center axle pivot drop brackets-ttb
Ok fellas im having a terrible problem with my 95 f150 to get the alignment right. I just bought aftermarket caster/camber bushings. But i was on www.jackit.com and they say they sell "adjustable center axle pivot drop brackets" which they say helps big time with camber problems.

(about 6 lines down from the bottom of the truck pic)
My truck is in bad shape. It has a 4" suspension lift. 3" body. It originally had 4" procomp lift coils but then i was getting bad negative camber due to what i think was spring sag. So i bought 2" trailmaster lift springs and 2 adjustable spring inserts. These inserts allow you to crank it up and lifting the coils from 1"-5" on the ifs of these trucks. Problem is i have just the drop bracket radius arm brakets (4") and the drivers side is twisted in. (twisted frame a little)
As of now my driver side is lifted higher than the passenger side. I put a level on the truck and cranked up the lift on the passenger side, now i have extreme positive camber on that side. My caster/camber bolts are both set for max camber on both sides, so i will take this in for an alignment once my new caster/camber bushings arrive.
Maybee these things jackit.com sells would also help. Anyone have them? Or does anyone have any comments for my sorry truck? Thanks, All input is appreciated.

thanks pepper,
I did find a good link there, www.tuffcountry.com that has pics and an installation manual of the lift, even though mine isnt tuffcountry the basics are the same.
