leaning springs?

Post by zookjedi »

i bought a set of recurved springs of ??? about 3 months ago and after installing them the reaper leans pretty badly to the drivers side ive removed the springs swaped sides just to see if the springs have saged and it rectified it about 50% . ive spoken to the ahem supplier whom never got back to me even after me contacting him on three occasions. I've removed the spare wheel etc but no change . The odd time it will sit level about 2 times out of ten and the chassis is all straight as it would seem any thoughts

p.s the bushes are all well greased
if its worth doing do it intensly , better still do it with MADPASSION

Put your big ass tool box on the passanger side and anything else you have in the 4by I had a small piece of steel that skippy will tell you about 20 to 30 kgs as well as my tool box and it sat level most of the time and that was with one person in there.

Skippy still has that piece of steel DON'T YOU SKIPPY :twisted:

Do you have a locker/spool in your rig? Sometimes (especially with coilys) the rear torques the springs due to loaded up rear axles. The reason I'm thinking this is cause it sometimes sits right.
