Rear Lean

With the underslung rear suspension, use of shims will not have any effect on a lean condition. Use the following procedure to verify and correct a rear side-to-side lean condition.

1. Inspect the vehicle for any excess loads which may weigh the vehicle down on one side more than the other. Usually a weight of at least 50 pounds is required to cause such a lean.

2. If lean condition is not caused by weight, swap the rear springs from side-to-side.

3. If the lean changes sides, the lean condition is most likely caused by a bad spring. Replace both springs.

4. If the lean condition did not change when the springs were changed, factors other than suspension are the cause.
