Hello,
I recently posted about options for an independent front suspension. My f100 has djm drop beams and 1.5 coils cut from front springs. Concerned about tire wear with the camber. Would going back to original height coils get most of the camber out? The current drop is about 4.5 inches and with stock coils it should be around 3 inches,
Thanks in advance for all replies I have been a forum member for a while usually just read but now I have a truck.

Re: front suspension
I suggest going back to stock coils until ya figure out what to do. Changing the front end, like with a CV swap, means ya would need to mod the rear axle to match the smaller bolt pattern.

Re: front suspension
Thanks for the reply. Instead of a CV swap what are your thoughts on a mustang 2 setup for the front? Look forward to your reply.
Thanks
