ok so i have a 2000 2wd xlt extended cab. i recently lifted it 3 inches. i used front coil spring (forget the company bought from a friend) and rear blocks. i brought it to an alignment shop and he said it couldnt be aligned because there wasnt enough adjustment and that my lower and upper ball joints were in a bind. now i know i need the aftermarket lift upper control arms to fix the top. my question to you all knowing suspension ppl is, with the installation of the upper control arms (aftermarket made for the lift) will he be able to align the front end? i know the control arm will eliminate the upper ball joint being it a bind, but what about the lower ball joint? thank you for you response and help.

 

the upper arm will fix the the tilt of the spindle to "unbind" the lower and upper control arm

 

I'd get upper arms like what come in the Fabtech 5.5" kits. On top of that, I'd grab some Ingalls cam bolts from summit...They allow for 6degrees of adjustment where as stock there's no adjustment.

NOTE: They are sold AS PAIRS, so order a quantity of TWO, not four.

 

thanks guys i appreciate the help. the control arms have been ordered and are on the way. Fx4wannabe01 the cam bolt are perfect for what i was wanting. are they good for my model ranger? which bolts do they replace if you happen to have a picture or anything thanks
