The top of the tires are also very slighty outward, it's not noticeable, but my tires do wear unevenly =(. Hope this helps.
Actually the tires on vehicles are supposed to be out slightly at the top, to make up for the fact that the turning axis is tilted slightly towards the rear at the top. It's all part of the steering geometry, return to center ect.
I have the front of my truck level with the rear and it's a 2wd. It was done by the previous owner but he said it was done with big block springs as opposed to the smallblock ones? Does that make sense? I do have alignment issues, though. The top of the tires are also very slighty outward, it's not noticeable, but my tires do wear unevenly =(. Hope this helps.
Well, I may be wrong but the previous owner may have used the F150 with the 351 springs...I guess cause of weight they (351's) required heavier springs..BTW, if thats the truck in your avatar..It looks good!..

Maybe slighty but not enough to wear my tires on the outer edge more than anywhere else.
I used Rancho springs on mine. It sets level and I am quite happy with the ride. It has what I would consider a stock feeling ride with a little less body roll. I really don't know if Ford sells a set that raises the ride height. They may though; When I changed them I had to get new upper ball joint alignment bushings to bring the top of the tires back into proper camber alignment. I believe they were 1.5 degree bushings.
