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.

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.

They don't, normally. Some of the metal has to be clearanced in order for the alignment to get to spec. I still have to drop the knuckle on my daughters 2-wheel drive truck and remove some more with a grinder so the alignment can be brought into spec.
