Add-A-Leaf Leveling Problem

The only way to level my '90 f25o 4x4 out there is the add-a-leaf kit. I recently installed the kit and it apparently raised the front end too much that the tires were bowed out. It could not be aligned because the leafs raised the front end of the truck too much. Is there any way of fixing this besides re-arcing the stock springs or will I have to continue to roll around with the stock front end slammed look?

check out tuffcountry.com
What you may need is those drop down brkts to lower your ttb axle.
You could also just do a search for drop down brkts.

Yes but if the brackets drop the axle down too far it wont align that way either will it? Isn't there too much or not enough when it comes to alignment?

Those drop brkts I believe are good up to 6" and your add a leafs probably gave you
2" in the front, you then should be able to align the front up fine. Plus fords with the
TTB axles are inherent to the bow out look, most noticable when backing up. I would
just get a 4" inch lift using add a leafs on the back and the new leafs that come with a kit up front. My 89" i put a roughcountry 4" lift and it came with everything you need for about 600$.
