Hello Jeepers!
I just noticed today that my 96 Cherokee sits slightly uneven on flat surface.
From rear view, it looks slightly sunk on the left side (where it carries the spare tire).
Could the spare tire be causing the car to sit uneven?
I made someone go into the driver's seat while I stood in the back and watched, and I could definitly notice the uneveness when someone was in the car.
Is this normal?
If not, what can I do to fix it?
Thanks!

doubt its from the spare. I have the same issue on the passenger side and people told me the same things that Im reading on yours. try switching the springs around and see if the problem changes. mine did so I know it was the springs. weird thing is RC sent me new spring and it did the same thing on the same side...
