uneven
looking at the rear of my truck I notice that the drivers side rear corner of the bed is higher than the other 3 corners. Any answers?
|
What are you considering a corner?
|
the drivers side rear is up about 1.5 inches conpared to the rest of the bed. other than that the bed is perfect. when you step on the bumper it moves back down, I think it is the suspension but I am not sure:bowtie:
|
Unless the frame or the bed is bent, it is most likely suspension. Does it look like all the time, or just in your driveway? What I'm getting at is to make sure it's on a level surface. At my parent's house my truck looks like what you are describing, but at my house it looks level.
|
No my driveway is level, I have seen alot of trucks like this, The original owner of the truck said it hasn never been wrecked. What is it with the shock setuo? one fore and the other aft the rear axle?
|
is the front level...or is that off too? If the front is not level then your front suspension might be the cause. If the front IS level, then it could be something on the rear suspension or bed and/or frame issues of some kind.

my bed is that way and have seen many other trucks of our years the same way. mine was in a wreck previously and that might be it. but there was a noticable difference.
|
The front is level, and this was the case even before I put the 5.6 drop on it.
|
If it is the suspension... How do I fix it?
|
a realllllly big hammer!! hhaa
|
I don't think it could be a shock. Maybe the leaf springs have more tension, just on that one side.
I don't see a problem with it, I don't think anyone would notice if they were looking for it. I wouldn't waste my time to fix it....I'd just take it as a factory custom piece. :D |
I would guess leaf springs are weaker on one side, or maybe a broken leaf.
Where at on the truck are you measuring at? |
Mine leans as well but that's from worn out springs and bushings.
