front axle issue
the front alxe of my pickup ('03 250 6.0L diesel) is offset. i mean really offset! the left front tire sticks out about 3.5 inches past the fender where as the passenger tire is almost flush with the fender. have any other 6.0 owners come across this? any fixes? oh and it does have a
4" lift that was on the truck when i bought it. as far as i know it wasnt wrecked when i bought it (according to carfax). ive asked a couple mechanics and they tell me theres nothing i or they can do to fix it. any help is greatly appreciated! also she tracks good and theres no extra wear on the tires.

Ford uses a track bar on the front axle of these trucks. When you install a lift you need to install a adjustable track bar or a track bar drop bracket. Either the previous owner didn't install one of those or your track bar is bent.
I will try to attach a link to show you a track bar drop bracket.
