Does this make sense to anyone?

Well ford has had my truck for over 2 weeks now. I took it in because my truck leans about an inch to the drivers side.

They sent it too a frame shop and it came back fine. However the frame guy noticed something wrong with the front left spring. That made sense to me.

Well they changed out both front springs today and it still leans. They called me today to tell me that the new springs did not fix the problem. They now want to replace the rear leaf springs.

Does this sound right? How can the rear springs affect the left front side?

This is really frustrating. Im glad they are trying to fix my truck but I miss my truck.

Also if the rear leaf springs dont fix it what else can they do?

Thanks
Tom

theres alot of trucks that lean a little to the right. You have to take in account the gas tank and the drivers weight. I dont know what to tell you about getting new springs.

If the rear pass. side leaf spring is higher than the driv. spring, it could cause the right rear to seem higher and therefore make it seem like the left front is what is low.

At least thats what I would think
