2005 silverado ext cab leaning to the left side??


Recommended Posts

I have a 2005 Silverado EXT short bed 2wd with 203,000 miles. I have noticed that the truck is leaning to the driver side. It has factory suspension and all four tires are aired up to specs. Just curious as to what may cause this issue?

front or back ?

 

there is no adjustment for ride height on a 2wd truck, tire diameter will make some difference ,,,

 

springs hold up your truck plain and simple ,,,,,,,a sagging rear leaf spring on one side will elevate kitty corner height ...

 

i suggest an alignment

 

you can check another truck and there maybe a reason for a slight difference i cant think off ,,,

 

please keep us updated what you find ,

 

do not start throwing parts at it

Thanks for the info. It's just leaning to the drivers side both front and back are lower than the right. I was kinda thinking the springs were alittle worn and causing it to sag. Just thought I would check and see if somebody had a similar issue on a 2wd. I plan on lowering the truck so when I do I will prob do a lower spring.

May be the classic "Chevy lean" that you got that maybe amplified by the worn parts. Just remember that most of the weight of the truck is offset to the left of center (when you are sitting in the driver seat).

Driver weight and gas tank. My 04 leans to the left

 

Here is a pic. You can tell that it has the lean
