New Coils
I am looking at a set of Pro Comp replacement coil springs for a 90 f-150 4x4. My springs are starting to sag, so i thought i would buy a set of these(Tech notes said it would give a little stiffer ride and a 1.5-2" of ride height gain). My question is will i have a problem getting an alignment with this extra ride height(upper and lower ball joints are new, so i spose i could have it aligned without problems?) The pass. side tire looks like its leaning as if a ball joint is bad so i had taken it back to the shop where it was worked on and they said the springs are sagging, would be kinda nice to get the front end up a little bit to level out the truck, but i dont want to make it a hassle with buying more parts. Thanks guys!!!

ok guys i saw a lift kit i was thinking about getting, 2.5" from tuff country, comes with coils, axle drop bracket kit, rear blocks and u-bolts, my friend said i need new upper balljoints with a camber adjuster for the alignment. i really dont want to mess with the ball joints since they arent even a year old yet, let me know thanks!

The drop down brackets might hook you up. If not........I went with the DayStar 2" leveling kit and I needed a 3* bushing. They used a 2* and put my 3/4* in, but had they used a 3*, I'd be right.
I think the 3* from JCWhitney was like 30-40 bucks.
