Suspension lift

I have a 96 ranger splash x cab with a 2.3 eco boost . I have installed spacers on the rear to give a 4 inch lift and have added spacers to the front coil springs to achieve the same. I am trying to get the camber adjusted so that the front wheels are not at an angle where the truck rides funny or looks funny. I know there are products out there i just want to make sure i get the right one. My truck is NOT a 4x4 and the only thing i can find is for a 4x4 truck. I like the current height of the truck i just need to get the camber fixed. anyone with ideas or who has tackled this issue please let me know.
Thanks

I'm wondering what coil spring spacers you used th achive this. If it's those rubber spacers or metal ones with the two bolts, imo your looking at trouble. You would be better off modifying a body lift and adjusting rear leaf space and torsion bar adjustment over using those spacers. I lifted a 2x4 c10 years ago and the body lift was the best choice. Good luck.

It's pretty tough to adjust the torsion bars on a coil spring front end.

your right, my misunderstanding. I forgot, the splash only has the stabilizer bars. I should have looked it up before replying.
