Chevy lean

[mike]

Hello, need help! My 1987 4x4 1/2 ton Chevy suburban has a lean to it. When you are looking at it, the drivers side leans ( lower than passenger side). Any suggestions on what to check and look for. Thanks Mike

Spring bushings body bushings weak springs. Measure from the groung to the bottom of the wheel well while the truck is on level ground with tires all at the same pressure and then measure again from the ground to the frame to see if its body bushings or spring bushings that are bad.

My pickup looks like the bed is twisted because of lousy springs. If I were you I would start by looking at the springs and take some measurements.

I know there isn't much rust up there in WA but it's common for the radiator supports in these trucks to rot out around the bushings giving the illusion one side is lower than the other. If your door/fender gap is good on the leaning side then this isn't your issue...

Go to the bar, have a few drinks (20-30) and have this girl sit in your truck on passenger side. Problem solved

I kid....but as above, bushings and springs. Ground to frame, ground to body measurements.
