Project 1964 f100

I have a 1964 F100 that i'm getting ready to start working on. It's sat for years on blocks in a man's driveway so I bought it. I put a set of wheels on it and brought it home and got it running. Truck sounds great. The only issue is one front wheel will be straight and the other will be pointed out to the right as if the wheel is turned. I'd like to see if someone may give me some tips on what to do. Also i'd like some advice on the best way to drop it front and rear since it has leaf springs.
Thanks!!

congrats on your new truck. Sounds like you need to check the tie rods out. The drag link and tie rods are what hold the wheels together...

I found the problem. The tie rod was out of line. So that is gonna be an easy fix.
NOW..... how is going to be the best way to lower it since it has leafs on the front and rear?? Any help would be appreciated!!
