Uneven lift! Help!
I'm not sure how to deal with my uneven lift. I wanted to lift the front to match the rear since I know it sat lower but this is what I found..
Tire to fender:
I know it shouldn't lean to the drivers side this much with all new stuff..
Tire to fender:
- Drivers front: 5"
- Drivers rear: 6"
- Passenger front: 6"
- Passenger rear: 7"
I know it shouldn't lean to the drivers side this much with all new stuff..

Could it be leaning because I drive alone 90% of the time and have the spare tire on my side?

Did you add a leaf or no?...if you did you may have sagging leafs which wouldn't help and cause un level...and no I drive by myself and I'm 165 and have a 75lb spare. So its not that.. I would point my finger at saggy leafs....also your unibody could be twisted

Ya I don't know.. I might get some 3/4" spacers for the front and add one of the 10MM ones to the drivers side.. Maybe throw some weight in the passenger rear and call it a day..

if they are under warranty, and they should be as new as you said they are, you should just get them to send you replacements...

Mine was leaning and the driver's side was about an inch lower than the passenger side. When I pulled my suspension off to redo it I found that the previous owner got the front springs backwards and the passenger side spring was the taller one intended for the driver's side.
If the left front is low it will make the left rear low.
