allignment

Just had my front end done. It cost me 45 bucks for the allignment. I had to pay an extra 60 bucks for a kit to put on my truck to allign it right.

They said all fords come from the factory with out this part. Does this sound right. Or was I took

Yes/No. They do need adjusters if required to bring them into line. But they cost about 8.00 at the ford dealer.

well depending on what year model you have. I know from 1983-97 Rangers had the twin I beam setup like the older f150 and the I beam system took a bushing on the I beam to allign the truck. The 98-present Ranger has a different suspension set up and i'm not too famillar with this setup.

I think you need some cam kit to adjust the camber. I've been told this by quite a few poeple.
