I installed my 3 in lift about 3 weeks ago, The whole Thang leans to the right,its about 3/4 to an inch lower on the right,just a "skoach" lower on the right front, Rear, has blocks, theyre mounted completely flat on the perches, the front springs are mounted the way they should, in the spring rests (indentations), everything is as it should be, i thought, maybe my rig is bent/twisted, but all the door gaps are even, everything closes well???? What gives, only thing is i dont have the front sway bar hooked up yet. Could a weak rr spring cuse this???? Any help/comments are appreciated, ill try and post a pic or two tonight!

When you torque the bolt in the suspension was the rig on the ground or on Jacks? Should have been on the ground. Springs might not be centered on the axel. Could try swapping the spring Right to left .

only prob is i never had the rear springs out, just un-bolted the u-bolts, put the lift blocks in, and installed new u-bolts and shocks.

Are you running stcok trackbar in stock location? Are you running a Swaybar in the rear?

Did you install longer shocks?

garb.man

Yes on trac bar, yes to longer shocks and rear sway bar. I just havnt hooked up the front swaybar yet. The lift kit was on another cherokee, when i bought my jeep, the guy threw the lift kit in for free, its a rough country 3inch kit that was about a year old, consists of front coils, rear blocks, and the appropiate shocks. Could the rear sway bar be causing the issue??

Sorry, supposed to be WEST SIDE LEAN, laptop buttons suck-eth!! Carry on!

The rear sway bar may be bent and causing the lean. You can remove it SAFELY, in fact XJs that came with a Tow Pkg don't even have one. You do NEED the Swaybar in the front. The rear bar connectors are Too short for your lift anyway.

Could just be a weak springs. When I put new leafs on mine the gangsta lean went away.

I am starting to suspect crap rear springs. Now that i uploaded a couple pics, its more obvious, could aal or shackles be a temp solution? I do have a 1 inch spacer i could throw on the front and new RC shaclkes that came with as well. I am unemployed at the moment and now have to rely on this as a Daily Driver!!!! So in the interest of savn a buck, im open to options!!

wow it is very noticable, i believe it is the leaf springs on that side, i would either try shackles or bastard packs

if you dont have a swaybar it could easily let the jeep lean to one side if you're not on completely level ground.

I have had the same thing on my XJ. Even with full leaf packs, it still leaned to the right .5 to .75 inches. I have adjustable coil spacers on the front so I crank up the right side another 1/2 inch, but it doesn't really help. I picked up some 6.5" leafs off craigslist and after I put them on tonight, we'll see if the leafs were the problem.
