I Beams And Dropped Spindles
Yeah i lowered a 93 ford ranger i lowered the front by Heating the Coil Springs About 3 Inches well now my front tires or Bowled out and i can't get it alined up Because of that. the question i have is Some say i need Dropped Spindles and that will solve the Problem and i also heard i can get Dropped I Beams which will do the same..... So would dropped I Beams be fine to use rather than the spindles? Thnx Alot any help would be very nice.

I'd get new springs while you were at it, lol. That's not a great way to handle springs from what I've heard.
Both lifting and dropping i-beam or TTB Rangers causes problems with camber. There are some special correction kits for that, but I don't know if they have enough range to fix that much camber.

Dropped spindles will move the truck down without changing the i-beam angle I do believe. But you get more drop yet with bent i-beams and shorter springs.
Now, prior to a certain year, when they changed to cast i-beams, you can heat and bend the stock i-beams to get the correct camber. But I don't remember what years so you'll have to research that. That's the alternative to getting dropped i-beams since you're into heating, lol.
That's been done a lot and if done carefully doesn't weaken things too much.
