Front Leveling Woes.

Took the truck to 4 Wheel Parts, they said my springs are shot, front end is abnormally low even with the two one inch spring spacers in each coil.

What sucks is I just had new outter tie rod ends, new shocks in the front and an alignment performed last week with one new camber thingy. Now I'm going to need new shocks and another alignment to lift the front end up 2", including new cambers.

I've been researching this forum a bit and read about a popping noise while in reverse, somthing about the tie rods, as well as the alignment never being correct..? Did I read and comprehend that right?

Any and all insight greatly appreciated as now I'm wondering if it's even worth it. Maybe just buy and install new springs is what I'm left thinking I should do. The guy said that that alone will lift the truck some.

2 wd 2001 F250 Super Cab 7.3.

Thanks.
