Rear end sagging?

[riviera rider]

after installing my 3" body lift kit i can see that my drivers side is sitting roughly 1/2" to 3/4" lower than the pass. side. kind of annoying looking, i havent put in my new shocks on the rear yet, could that be the problem or is is the springs??

its just in the back that annoys me, my front is the same way but im going to mess with the keys and get the front aligned up, just trying to figure out the culpret for my rear end being lower on one side

springs sag over time. A 1" block or zero rate will bring it back up, mabe even a 2" block depending on the sag. The sag rom side to side is leafs and torsion bar sag. Give them a tiny crank back up to level from side to side

whats a zero rate?

 

[bowtiefreak]

basically a lift block that also alows you to shift the axle forward or backward a little. Do a quick google search and they will pop right up

how hard is it to change the leaf springs yourself?? they're only like 180$ i seen might just do that if its not too hard

The reason you get your lean is because like bowtiefreak said the springs wear over time. Also since you have a four door the gas tank sits on the drivers side adding that extra weight so it sits about 3/4 on an inch lower. Since i didnt replace the leafs w/ my lift kit i took out my spring pack and had a shop re-arch my spring. Needless to say i sat perfectly level and got rid of the annoyance for 18 bucks plus my time.

yes my pass side rear sits about almost an inch higher than the dr side rear, its verrrrrry annoying looking

what kind of shop can i bring that to to do that?

Rear air bags!!!

It wont cure your sag, but to counteract any more sag you could swap the springs

air bags wont cure sag???? I beg to differ. You put new springs in it will still sag under load. Bags COMPLETELY cure that.
