i need some input here
ive noticed lately my truck leans to the left so i measured it and its a full inch and a half lower than on the right.
it looks horrible
can anyone give me some advice or tell me what the problem might be??
thanks

 

Is it a 4x4 or 4x2? If it's a 4x4, I had the same problem on my 2000 Scab. I cranked the torsion bar up on whichever side it is leaning on to level it out with the other side. I'm not sure if the shocks have anything to do with it but my shocks were worn out also in the front. So I replaced those as well. I got an alignment after I cranked the torsion bar on the one side and with the new shocks, problem was solved.

Again, this is only from a 4x4 perspective so if you have a 4x2, you don't have torsion bars and may have to look at an alternative method. I'm sure someone else will chime in with some help also. Good luck.

 

How much do you weigh?

 

Let me guess..... you measured at the rear wheel wells? Its from the gas tank, or so I was told. My 1999 F-150 was 1.5" lower on the drivers side.

 

ok my truck is a 4X4 and my torsions are both cranked all the way and i just replaced my shocks in september with rancho rs5000s, i only wiegh 160 so thats ruled out...haha, and im pretty sure this isnt gas tank related since im sittin on an eighth of a tank right now
i just dont know what to do about this

 

how long has this been like this?

 

i believe the gas tank reference meant that over time, the weight that is constantly in the gas tank on a daily basis causes the leaf springs to wear a bit unevenly...my truck also leans 2001 supercrew 4x4....im seriously considering some new leaf packs, new torsion bars, and new shocks all around, and maybe new set of poly bushings on all body mounts to see if this will remedy the lean

 

thanks for all the advice.
im convinced its due to worn leaf springs since this truck has gone half its mileage pulling trailers
but can anyone tell me a good website to buy replacement leaf springs for cheap??

 

i would find a local suspension shop and see about having new spring packs made specific for your truck. they could possibly even rearch your stock ones but that will not last long, they eventually sag bag to the original condition...try offroad shops and custom truck shops, they can probably give you someone in the area who works with leaf springs and such
