i bought a ranger and put a 5.5 superlift kit on it, it already had a 2" spacer on it so i left the puck in, well then my truck set weird so i added a add a leaf now it sits weird but, it does not want to stay on the road any suggestions, ive tried getting it aligned but it makes it worse and im just wearing my tires out and i ive got the biggest casber camber kit in and its still a little off, but i wonder if i just need to take them pucks out, when i take off it lifts of and sits back down hopefully i can find a quick fix till i sas it thanks
 
ok, if it's an 84 that's a TTB setup, not IFS. it's like half IFS and half solid axle. i'm guessing the tires look like this? \ /

take out the pucks. the drop brackets for the coils that came with the lift kit are 5.5" coils and you've got 7" of lift up there. with the bushings, you should be able to get it back to spec. you may need a longer pitman arm as well.
 
getting a FA600 drop pitman arm might help, but those things are $200.

you could also try and find some larger drop brackets. skyjacker used to sell an 8" kit but i dont know if they do anymore. i know you can buy the 4"-6" drop brackets separately, but not sure about the 8" ones.

f you're gonna SAS it, i'd just take the puck out so you dont eat up your tires.

put some pics up of the steering, pitman arm and the coils
