Default suspension stance

bone stock xj is sitting about 1" lower on driver side front and rear. So i installed 3" lift coils 4 new shocks and a 3" add a leaf in rear. It still has the same stance issue with driver side being lower. What the hell... bobby!

How are u measuring ur lift? If u are measuring from tire to flare or something like that then thats probably why u are getting 2 different measurements. If it turns out it rlly is 1" lower then a simple coil spacer will help with the problem

Add a leaf with make it sag 3" less on each side. new coils in front should even the front out.

If if ur stock leafs had uneven sag from the start then adding aal's to it, it will still be uneven.

He said one side is higher. Not that the front or back is higher. Its a sideways lean.
