More frontend adjustment

A friend has a 92 F250 4X4 w/a 460 that the front tires cup on the inside. He has had it aligned a couple of times and they always tell him that they have adjusted it to the max. I know that the Dodge guys have an after market kit that will allow for more adjustment of the front end. Is there such a thing for his Ford?
Thanks for any help you can give on this.

I don't know about a kit for that but where did he have it aligned at? If it was not a quality place they may not be checking the right things. The truck likely has the TTI front suspension. If the front springs have become weak a realignment may not fix the problem. My cousin had a similar problem with his '96 F-250. (now my truck) He put an add-a-leaf kit on it and the problem went away.

It sounds like this may be your friends problem. I suggest putting an add-a-leaf on the front and then taking it to a quality alignment place. They will also tell him if there are any other problems that need to be addressed before they can align the truck.

Also check the axle pivot bushings, if they are badly worn or crushed out of shape it can affect alignment.
