riding on front bumpstop
maybe someone can help me
I noticed the other day while under my durango that the driver side suspension is resting on the bumpstop, the passenger side is about half a inch off the lower arm. How can this be corrected? new front shocks? or is it okay to ride on it just a little more rough I guess
any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated
thanks

RE: riding on front bumpstop
I've seen this before. It is a good thing to have your torsion bars turned up and a camber and 4 wheel alignment to correct the problem. The problem is that the rear springs start to sag down and a owner will take it to a shop ane they will turn it down to match the rear. You might have to put a shackle lift on the rear when you have the front adjusted up because the front will be higher than the rear. This is easily corrected and inexpensive. It isn't going to put extra strain on the control arm but you need to get it corrected. Don't leave it for very long like that.
