Did alignments for 20 years
Your toe is too far positive (in too much)
Either get it aligned or just crank the toe out about a half turn on one sleeve or 1/4 turn on each sleeve
If you just want to crank the toe out some, then note, the RF outer has clockwise threads and the LH outer has counterclockwise threads
Have fun
I was looking at the spacers on the u bolts them selves - wondering what they are made of...... no comment on the lift blocks.... doesn't look like a set up I would run.
It could be toe in, but looks like other TTB's, (including mine in the past when set up for plow on, vs plow off) when the camber is off, typical outer wear on the tires. Very typical of lifting the front.
Over all views of the front tires will tell pretty quick.
X2...too much toe in or the camber is way out. Or a combination of both.
I agree.
With the imperfect steering geometry of a ttb, if camber and toe are correct at a given ride height, and the truck is then raised (leveled), they will both be out of spec and tire wear will be fast. I know my truck toes in as it rises, toes out at full compression.
From your pictures it looks like your rear tire has the same offset. I'd be looking into that also. Normally I'd say it could be a body issue, both the cab and then box to the right, but it does look like the front bumper is fine unless it's been modified to fit. It would be worth it to have a 4 wheel alignment performed to check the tracking.
Yeah, I didn't get an alignment. Truck drove straight as an arrow.
Little story about that very thing. I have a Hyundai Sante fe that I did a bunch of front end work on, wheel bearings, sway bar bushings, ball joints, changed 1 strut. The steering wheel was always off center too so I loosened the rod ends and adjusted both side the same amount to straighten the wheel. Also did some measurements to see as best I could that that wheel alignment wasn't way out to lunch. After that the car drove straight, wheel returned to center as it should, and over time there didn't seem to be much noticable tire wear so I called it good. Fast forward to winter and I get to drive it on partially snow covered roads for the first time and immediately notice the wheel moves and the steering becomes vague when moving from bare pavement to snow covered. Something isn't right, must have too much toe in/out now, so it needs a proper alignment.
