Front drive fender lower than front pass 16 silverado


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

I just did an install of the bilstein 5100 struts on my 16 Silverado. The bilstein struts are set to max height +1.85".

 

When I went around measuring fender height after the level, I came up with 38.6" on the front driver side and 39.1* on the front passenger side. I check both struts and they are both set to max.

 

Anyone have a guess what is up? I am confident the struts were installed correctly...

A .5 difference is not a hole lot.

 

Let it settle in for a few days and see.

 

Also check the tire pressures from side to side.

 

Not all tires even rest the same I've seen differences just from the tire it's self.

Yeah let it settle in a bit, but my truck sets about a half inch lower on the driver side due to the weight of the gas tank. Half inch is basically unnoticeable to the naked eye honestly

Here is a thought, I haven't done an alignment yet (doing it Monday). Could that cause anything to be slightly off as far as ride height?

Level kit usually only affects the toe of the truck, that's the only thing that was adjusted on mine. It's normal for a truck to be off and .5" isn't much at all
