    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    Ditched the struts and went with belltech coilovers and new moog upper control arms. Right now driver is stock coilover which is 1” drop and passenger is around a 2.5” drop and it’s pretty level. The only thing I haven’t changed out are the maxtrac spindles. I’m half tempted to run the...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    In the morning I’m going to loosen all the control arms and cycle the suspension just to see if that makes a difference.

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    I might go try to make my mounts look like that ! It was driver low with the bilsteins so I doubt it’s the belltech. I’m going to pull 1 more ring off for a .5” drop and I just order new links. These were over torqued and are smushed. Maybe with a new set torqued to spec it will help. I’m...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    I took 1.5” off the sway bar tube. Both coils are brand new 1” maxtrac drop springs. If I cut the tube any more the sway bar will contact the lower control arm. It looks like I’ll take another ring off the strut for a 1.5” strut drop on the passenger side. Maybe this will cause it to level...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    I have had an alignment done but I have never unbolted the control arms and revolted. I assumed this was done during that alignment but I could loosen the bolts and retighten with a jack under the lower control arms or have the alignment shop do it on the rack. I’ll have to look at the sway...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    Never been wrecked but my father did hit a turkey once lol. When it was lifted 3” on the bilsteins and 1” spacer I never measured it but never noticed a difference either. I have brand new performance sway bars front and rear. Maybe they aren’t tightened down evenly? The bilsteins are a...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    Just replaced both struts with belltechs. Lowered the passenger side an inch and left driver stock and put the 1” drop spring on the driver to match the passenger side. Driver is still 1” lower. Current drop should be 3” on driver and 4” on passenger side. I’ll have to go another inch lower on...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    Springs are seated right. I trimmed a little off the passenger coil and it dropped it to near even but the driver 5100 is still one notch above stock. I didn’t like how the strut mount set on the cut spring so I ordered a set of 1” maxtrac coils and they sit stock height on the passenger side...

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    I have one but haven’t put it on yet. The lean is really in the front. Back is pretty close. Not sure how I can get another nice drop out of the passenger side.

    Lowered suspension still has a lean

    I have an 09 avalanche 4x4. I lowered the bilstein 5100 to the bottom notch and installed 2” max trac drop spindles and 3-4” rear belltech drop springs. Right now I have a bad lean to the driver size. I raised up the 5100 a notch on the driver size and I still have also a 1” higher gap on the...
