1997 F250 HD, Cant find tierods TTB 50

My truck is lifted, not sure the size, but clears 37" tires. the tierods are longer than the factory ones & bolt up completely diffrent. can someone tell me what this is attatched to my pitman arm i believe. & also, i changed my front en parts, (ball joints, wheel bearings,) and i still have negitive camber a the tires lean in at the top, i this normal? i know its always done it but thaught this would help.

Thumbs up

I have always seen that D44 TTB trucks that are lifted have camber issues unless there are drop brackets on the radius arms.

As for the tie rods, I would try to find out who made the lift kit. Then find the instructions if possible.

it is a dana 50, & it does have the drop brackets.
& thats was my first thaught! i just cant seem to find any markings of who made the lift or find anything online of the lift! i know 100% the truck was lifted in late 1996 or early 1997, so finding the lift may be difficult lol.

Do they drop the TTB enough for your tires and total lift? 37s are pretty tall. Maybe a PO added different leaves, add-a-leaf, or the leaf bushings are roached?

Check out those caster/camber keys too. You need a boss alignment guy to get a TTB truck to drive correct. I have one in DFW and one in Houston if that helps.
