Might as well through some camber bolts on while your in there. The part everyone forgets to tell you is that most shops won’t/can’t adjust camber without them.

got a link for some? or part number. thanks!

That’s the kit I used that he posted from stage 3

I see how they help now. My only concern is I don't see any one saying they fit 2021/2022 trucks. @GIjoe Did you have any fitment issues on your truck?

Will the Moog kit not work?

Ordered this last night:

It is listed to fit models through 2023 on the site but no I had no fitment issues. I bought them and had a shop install with the alignment and they had it all buttoned up in like an hour. I checked out their work and it all looks good to me.

I'm installing the kit at home. They say we need to get an alignment when alls said and done. Will I be able to drive say 10 miles to the alignment shop or how does that work?

You do need an alignment and driving it to the shop won't hurt anything at all.

When my coilovers were installed I added the $90 camber bolts to my order but when I got the truck back the technician said they weren't necessary. He said he's installed hundreds of lifts and said Gen14 trucks have plenty of adjustability if doing <=2.5" level.

I don't see why not. That set looks a lot like the SPC version too.... so long as the factory bolt fits the nut......

Never the less, these kits don't add camber, rather they help fine tune it. I'm not seeing how they effect caster though.....

I guess this is another one of those things Ford cut back on. Maybe Ford traded the alignment cams for the little red reflectors in the edge of our doors

if you dont mind me asking, was it a ford technician and how much did the install run? i'm debating back yard install or a professional haha

Les Schwab Tires did it.

I read that it states "not recommended for 4x2 drivetrain." Is there any particular reason that these wouldn't be compatible with a two wheel drive truck that does not have CCD and is not a Lightning?

 

[NH_Leadfoot]

I received my kit in the mail last night, I probably won't get around to installing until the spring. At least it'll keep the salt off of them for one more season. But nonetheless I'm excited to get them put on the truck and this recent info will help.

I'll let the experts chime in on that, but I want to say sure, why not. I guess one difference are the springs are designed to handle the extra weight from the 4WD components.

I have a 2019 2WD Ranger with a BDS 6" lift and Fox 2.0 coil overs. BDS didn't recommend it either, but it worked out great, I just had some left over parts

I agree with you but the bolts make adjustments easier and I had 4 shops tell me they wouldn’t do it unless I got the bolts.

The Santa that drives the brown delivery truck dropped mine today, looks like I’ll have to let ‘em know when they go on.

You ever find out if this kit supports any rear lift? Wouldn't mind adding a .5" on rear to keep the current angle I have with the 2" level if I go to the full 2.5" on this kit.
