leaning a little to the left?
my truck has this problem but mine is in the front. i have asked the dealer and they dont have a fricken clue. it even does it when the gas tank is empty. it was like that before i did my lift/level kit. guess i wil have to deal with it
What size fuel tank do you have and how full is it? Ive had this problem as well, tried swapping and rotating the rear coils and no change. I even tried brand new coils. It still sags about an inch on the left with a full tank. I just ignore it now until I put airbags in then I can add a little on the left side. I highly doubt its your lift kit manufacturer.
Ahh, I think you nailed it. The tank was completely full when I installed the kit and noticed the lean. Now it's under half full and seems to be sitting almost completely level. I can't imagine why Dodge wouldn't have addressed this when they sat down to engineer a new truck. Oh well, at least I know now that there's no problem with the kit or the way I installed it.
This leveling idea seems to create the most problems for ram owners. I don't see why the need. 2 inches...really? That is necessary. Now if I could do something to add 2 inches somewhere else then I might be interested but as far a leveling thee truck sounds like one of those PITA type mods. Not worth the troubles associated.
i have the same leaning problem front and rear.. ran the truck pretty close to empty and it still leans, not as much but its still there. I also found that rear passenger tire sticks out much further than the driver side. the dealer is blaming it on the rear spacers. saying since i raised the rear end the panhard rod is too short and is pulling the rear end toward the passenger side. Any ideas? Also after looking at the truck from behind im beginning to think the bed is out of alignment. Is there anyway to fix that? Shim the bed?
Technically they could be correct. Lifting the suspension will make your axle sit offset slightly. The panhard bar runs diagonally, so it effectively gets shorter as your suspension gets taller. It should be off by much though, I would think its no more than 1/2".
Almost all the new trucks Ive seen lately are not completely level.
Is there anyway to correct this? I'm thinking maybe its a combination of the bed not being level And the panhard bar pulling the rearend toward the passenger side.. How can they fix the leaning bed? What can I do about the rearend?
