Twin I beam help

Hello. I have 2 inch spacers under my Springs which is making the tires tuck in. I hear there is something you mount on the beams to even them out. Anyone?

maybe have the person you heard it from to clarify or be more specific but I have doubts a camber bushing can adjust for 2” so maybe they were talking about drop down brackets for the beams and radius arms.

"Tuck in", can you explain this a bit better?
A picture is worth a thousand words.

I interpreted it as positive camber

You're probably right, my first thought was wheels with the wrong backspacing, like late model OEMs without spacers.

Yeah it's positive camber. And I need to take a few pics I have to stop by the shop they're doing the oil pan gasket and valve cover gaskets.
