4x4 Body Lean


Recommended Posts

Posted

OK,

 

So I switched my rear springs, put the left on the right and the right on the left (man it was a pain in the butt!) after 4.5 hours. My truck still leans to the left terribly. Thus only three options remain: the frame is twisted (unlikely), the truck's TB's need to be adjusted (didn't help at all when I leveled the truck and had to return to stock). And Finally, there is so much weight on the left side of the truck that it leans that way. I feel that the only way I can fix this ugly problem is by weight redistribution, which will be very difficult to do.

 

Any suggestyions on how or what I could move to the right side?

The battery, steering column, brake controls, gas tank, etc. are on the drivers side. Moving these could be kind of a pain in the arse. Why don't you just shim the rear leafs on the drivers side if it bothers you so?

You know, that is actually something I thought about. Also maybe a thicker block/shim (something like that) under the spring. I will think of something, unless there is someone with the actual fix that I can't find on the forum.

I bought and installed the shim GM sells, and it makes a world of difference! All that is left is cranking thje T-bar a little on the left to level out the right-left issue. What sucks is that I will have to get an alignment again, but oh-well I guess that's the price for doinfg it yourself.
