I would contact Toms Bronco's in Oregon or 4wheel parts. They should be able to help.

get ahold of Cage offroad, they are pretty smart. 7 degree sounds like alot to me, but I don't have the experience to tell you. Hopefully the tech guys will still help you out even though you didnt purchase from them.

Depending on how long your radius arms are, that is going to be a determining factor in what degree bushing you are going to have. A 5.5" lift on an EB gets a 6 deg. bushing, and those are fairly short radius arms. The bushings are there to make sure you have proper castor/axle angle so that the steering geometry stays the same, theroetically. I got to say that the 7 degree bushings sound more in line than a 2 deg. is. But getting ahold of Cage or even Bronco Graveyard is the right thing to do. That is because we are Bronco guys here and even though the FS Bronco & the F-series are similar, unless one of these guys has one and has done the same lift as you, we are just making guesses based on our experiences with our rigs. But DEFINATLY get ahold of Cage or Bronco Graveyard.
