1990 Ford F-150 — square wheel setup on a car that came staggered

This started as a small annoyance and I finally decided to track it down. 1990 Ford F-150 XLT, about 253,500 miles. I am considering a square wheel/tire setup so I can rotate tires and simplify track spares. Besides clearance, what handling changes should I expect?

If it were mine, I would verify the cheap/easy branch on the 1990 Ford F-150 before committing to a big repair.

Thanks, this narrowed it down. I am going to try the simpler check on the 1990 Ford F-150 first.

Before you spend money, owner data points help more than a generic forum diagnosis on a 1990 Ford F-150.

I would not stop there. write down what you already tested so the next step is not a repeat.

One thing that mattered for me: in Orlando, I care more about the thing I will notice every day than the spec-sheet extra.

On that point — I would verify the cheap/easy branch on the 1990 Ford F-150 before committing to a big repair.
