92 ranger stx 4x4 alignment

I have a 92 ranger stx 4x4 it has a 3 inch body lift. the front tires lean in at the top about an 1 inch from center. i was told i could put a 1 inch spacer on the springs to get them back inline. is this true. the price i was given for a alignment was $300. and i dont have the money right now. thanks for any help.
