2.5" Leveling kit front end like this \/

Im new to the ford world Ive only ever owned jeeps that being said dont know much about the suspension setups. I recently installed a 2.5" leveling kit in the front now I have a really bad camber my tires sit like this \/. What do I need to do to fix this? Will a trip to the local alignment shop do the trick or is there something I have to order. Its a 93 F250 with the ttb front end.

Drive the truck forward and recheck, if it's still way out you need camber bushings or drop brackets.. ie a full lift kit. Bottom line it would have been easier to drop the rear.

Install the adjustable camber/caster bushings and it can be corrected. It's the same issue with F-150s. 2.5" level may be a stretch on what the bushings can correct for, though, I've not worked on an F-250.

Thanks I wasnt sure if camber bushings would work or not it doesnt have to be perfect just as long as its not eating my tires and looks like im a part of the lowrider group.
