Alright so i just finished installing my lift about a week ago, and the thing is lopsided.

I went with the RC 4.5" longarm, then added 2 inch coil spacers and RC extended shackles and shackle relocation brackets.

My measurements from the center cap to the stock flares are:
Driver front: 25 1/4
Pass front: 24 1/2
Driver rear: 23 1/2
Pass rear: 22 1/2

The shackles and relocation brackets are in the same positions, and the stock coil isolators are in good condtion.

Any ideas?

When you torqued everything down. was the suspension loaded? or was the jeep still on jacks? Should have been loaded.....

It was loaded and I cycled the suspension pretty good before torquing.

Are the front wheel centered???? Trackbar too short?? Something is bound up or the body is bent.

I'm thinking track bar to short. You can relocate it if it's stock.

I have the RC adjustable track bar, and I'm pretty sure its centered. I would think within a quarter inch or so. I'll go check and make sure. How do you guys measure it?

I'm pretty sure the body isn't bent. It had a 2 inch BB when I bought it, spacers and shackles, and all the measurements were equal. No lopsideness. And I doubt the previous owners wheeled it that hard, if at all.

How far off center would the body-axle have to be to cause that much difference in height?

As long as the bushings in the leafs and control arms are good - as I would expect, being a new lift - then there are some more X factors. 1) make sure your front coils are both rotated in the same manner. If the bottom/end of the coil is in a different place than the other side, you can get this. Lastly, weight distribution of the stuff inside, spare tire, etc. If you have a front sway bar connected, make sure they are not binding awkwardly.

My jeep leans a little too, so i tend to put my heavier crap on the high side...I am very technical. HA!

Coils are both seated properly in the slots, and the weight is heavier on the driver side, yet its lower on the passenger side. Its throwing me for a whirl!
