Need some help. SERIOUS lean after DJM install

[nele22]

All,

I finished up my DJM 5/5 drop lon my 69 short bed ate last night. I did take before measurements and everything was spot on. 32" front and 34" rear.

Now that the drop is on I sit WAY lower on the drivers side. I have seen people saying that 3/4-1" is normal. My problem is I am more like 2.5" lower on the driver.

28.5" driver measurement but 31" passenger. What is wrong?

different springs? different spindles? you don't have the spring in the upper spring hat correctly?

[nele22]

Springs and spindles are the same. I checked that. Good point on the spring hat. I will check that.

You lost me.
1) lowered 5/5
2) front was 32", rear was 34"

3) how did you end up at 31" on the passenger side after a spindle spring drop?
1" total drop?

Unfortunately Keith you are tracking with me. I just went out and measured again. Still just 30" so a total of 2" on that corner. I just do not get it.

I used the DJM lower drop arms 3" and 2" springs. No spindles for those curious.

Update: It looks like the passenger front spring is hung up on the upper spring hat. I am taking it apart tomorrow.

Make sure the springs are seated correctly top and bottom. It can make a big difference.

You are 100% correct. One is sitting very goofy!
