Ok, i have the F-150 with the lift kit, 5 bushing lift, and Super Swamper tires and it toes out a lot........just like everyone elses. what springs would make it stiff enough so it doesn't toe out w/o buying the spring upgrade???
Thanks a lot.

I don't get why people hate how the lift kit makes the front toe out when compressed.

I don't need high speed control on flat ground. I have a car for that.

Man, I ended up taking the lift kit off the front of my truck. Stiffer springs will help, since it will only toe out when you hit a big bump, or come down off a jump. At any rate, after removing the lift kit from the front, handling is improved 100% and the truck is much more fun to drive. So that's my advice for you :). It only drops the chassis like 1/8" if that. Definately worth it for the improved control.

Spring wouldn't affect the toe. You need to change tie rods to mess with the toe angle. Spings would change how fast your shocks bound and rebound.
