Alignment Problems
Not sure if this is the correct place or not but anyways..... I have a 4.5" lift on and my passenger side sits about an inch lower than the drivers side. In other words, it's constantly leaning to the right. My front tires are getting worn very badly and I'm sure alignment has somewto do with it, as I will be getting that checked tomorrow, but my tires are also "cupping" or "chopping". This is usually because of shocks, but my shocks aren't a year old so it can't be that. Could this lean be affecting tire wear? Also, is this lean necessarily bad? Or is it mainly a cosmetic issue?

first thing i would check is to make sure the DRIVER side coil spring is indexed properly. if its out of the lower perch at all, it will sit higher than the pass side. if you can take pics of both springs. close up.
then report back.
then report back.
