Weird suspension problems - Please help...

Post by CHUUBZ »

I got 35's fitted to my GQ Shorty the other day on 15x8 reverse offset rims and noticed that the front of my car has suspension problem.

The drivers side wheel sticks out of the guard atleast a solid 3" out of the guard while the passenger side sits flush with the guard?

I can't figure out why, it doesn't crab walk when driving so I'm a but stunned to why to this is?

Any idea guys...?

Yeh if you have a look at the panhard setup on the GQ you will see the panhard hinges on the drivers side of the chassis. So when you lift the suspension, the axle assembly moves towards the drivers side of the vehicle.

Easy to fix with an adjustable front panhard rod.
