Toe in

Hello Bronco family. Im a 20 year old proud owner of 1991 ford bronco eddie bauer. I started to have a issue when i decided to put some chrome 15x10 rims on the bronco. The front of the truck looks to have a toe in look. I took it to sears and they did an aligment and told me that everything was fine. They just adjusted the camber or caster a little bit. As soon as lift it still had that look. I doesnt pull to the side or anything. I was hoping some one had a solution to this cause i hate seing my truck like that. Im planning to lift it 2 inches by putting new 2 inch shocks and springs in the front. Would that fix the problem? I will appreciate the help .

If the alignment is within specs, there is no reason to change it. In fact, changing it would just be a detriment. In short, you can't "fix" something that isn't broken. Most F-series and E-series models of that era will demonstrate a slight toe-in appearance after backing up and return to "normal" when pulled forward again.

BTW, if caster was adjusted, so was camber and vice-versa. There is no way to adjust just one on a TTB axle.

That will probably require another alignment afterwards.
