Unhappy 1991 f 150 1/4 ton front end ?

I just bought a 1991 f 150 in great shape.My question is that the front tires seem to be doing that ford spread when parked.The tires seem to be pointing out of camber.It has normal size tires that are new,so I am wondering if the springs my be worn,ball joints,tie rods???? I have no idea! Any help would be great.

Could be ball joints (check this first, of course) but most likely it is the common front spring sag. You can correct with either new springs or something like COIL RITES for the springs. You can adjust them as you need to.

The part number for the front of your truck would be 4102 as long as your truck is not lifted. I am looking at these for my F250 which shows the same sag in the front end, due to the weight of the PowerStroke under the hood.
