ok so i installed the lift a few days ago, its a rc 3" aal i just went out and took some measurements and the left front wheel well is about 1" lower then the other side when i did a rough measurement the right side measures 7" from the top of the tire to the fender flare, and the drivers side sits about 6" from the tire to the fender flare. is that side of the vehical just a little heavyer maybe? i know the rear wouldnt be perfectly even because the stock leaves had a tiny bit of sag in them.

measure from the axle -to- unibody frame rail for an accurate reading. But if you are heavy on the skinny pedal you can cause the passenger side to sag. I sagged my springs 2 inches on the passenger side.... Also the rear having a little bit of sag in them contributes but not a whole lot

My driver's side sags about the same amount. It could be that one of the POs was on the heavy side or it could be that the vehicle was used primarily with one person (the driver) for the majority of its 230,000 miles.
