Help: Right sides lower then left
Hello, first thread here.
My cherokee has a 4" spacer lift up front and an addaleaf in the back.
My problem is my right side (front and back) sags way lower then my left.
This makes my jeep drive like crap. I have moved my trackbar over 3/4" but that did not help.
I bought the rubicon express trackbar but have not installed it yet.
Cheers

welcome!
and if you still have the stock control arms then your springs are going to bow and it makes them sag way fast. and the AAL's are going to sag really fast as well if you have a block or a led foot.

The front lift came on the jeep. Its just spacers over the coils. When I installed the addaleaf the springs seemed even. But even with the addaleaf I did not notice a change at all with the sag. Making me think its not the rear leafs. I am using stock control arms at the moment.
Also going into corners I lean into right corners nicely, but on left corners the steering fights to be centered again and I dont lean into them at all. Its also alot easier to turn right then left
