title says it, could it be worn out springs or shocks? the rear leafs i just rebuilt with a bastard pack so im pretty sure it aint the rears causing it. so im bettin its the shocks atleast hopefully

 

You mean the infamous Xj lean. From what I have seen quite a few have it. I was told its the rear springs from engine torque. However you said you rebuilt yours, so now Im not sure. Maybe someone will help us both out on this. I doubt its a twisted body.

 

yeah its pretty even from front to rear like it dont look like anything is twisted, i didnt kno that it was a common problem, i didnt and dont have this problem with my other cherokee

 

Google found me this thread. They all talk about it,

I still say from engine torque over.

Chances are it the rear springs.. Swap the bastard springleft to right. I'll bet that evens things out.

 

gonnna try swapping springs and gettin new shocks as well once payday comes around

 

If the shocks are worn out go ahead and replace them. BUT. Shocks DO NOT affect ride height. They are not causing or affecting the lean. The lean is either springs or somthing is bent. Yes I know about air shocks, and that is a seperate issue and if used correctly wouldn't cause a lean either.

 

yeah im not doin air shocks the bastard pack lifted the rear about prolly an inch or two over stock height, i did notice that when i disco the front sway bar that it get worse

 

did you torque your u-bolt plates and shackle bolts for the rear leafs when the jeep weight was on the ground? or at least on axle stands, under the axle with all weight on.

if the leaf spring was hangin when you torqued it all down, it won't settle properly and would be jacked up.
