2wd POST LIFT question
Good day forum. My nephew and I lifted his two wheel drive 1991 F-150 reg cab long bed with a rough country 4 inch lift. After lift truck looks and drives great, however when you back truck uo into a parking space or drive way the front tires lean / \ severly. once you move truck forward everything looks fine. took it to have it aligned and still same issues. The guy at the shop told my nephew that all ford f150 with twin I beams do that after lifted???? This brings me here for some insight... thank you

he has a 2wd, but essentially the toe in/out will be effected the same as a TTB...the only way to fix that is to get different Ibeams...i know they make dropped Ibeams, but i dont know about lifted Ibeams....

Yes as do I. But i would rather see a lifted 2wd crusing the parking lot, than a big ole shiny lifte 4wd with no front drive shaft, crusing the parking lot. Stuff like that makes my blood boil. Ive wheeled with 2wd truck before, it adds a big challenge. Kinda fun too, as long as you have a 4wd recovery vehicle.
