Silverado Lean

[gregrocks89]

So on my 04 silverado on the front drivers side i got one hell of a lean on it. You dont notice it in driving but in a parking lot you do. Its sits lower on the drivers then the passenger side. I got brand new tires on it and they have all equal pressure. Just put new shocks in it last month to thinking it would help it, but nope. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? Thought about throwing a leveling kit in it.

 

its first thing in the morning so couldn't describe it well haha

I think, you should tighten up the BOLT of left torshion bar.

I was leaning towards that, but wasnt to sure

Mine was about 1/2" lower on drivers side. I raised my driver side torsion bar 1 1/2" and pass side 1" to make it even and to take alittle rake out of it. Rides the same and looks alot better.

Awesome i will do the same. hopefully this week i can get around to it. I take it you got a wheel alignment after to?

Yes,always after messing with the front suspension.

And just everyone know, changing ahocks cannot raise vehicle up. Ever. Even longer shocks will still leave truck at stock height. And not even gas shocks.

Back when i had my 04 it did the same thing when looking at it from the rear it was very visible.

My 01 had a lean. I could never get it fixed under warranty. They replaced both front coil springs and actually they replaced the driver side shock a second time with a special one that GM in Detroit made special and shipped here for that truck. The excuse they gave me was the regular cab with the short bed and the V-6 with the manual Trans, did not have the weight distributed equally and caused it to lean. I sold the truck after nine months and let someone else deal with it. I remember back around 2002 or so seeing pickups leaning as they were going down the road. You notice things like that once you know about them.
