Could not take pics as it was dark and started to rain just as I returned from the test drive. Feels good on the turns. I still have the heavy lean on the driver side. I though it would go away but guess not.
I was thinking about letting the springs settle and see how it is in a couple of weeks. If no difference then I will cut a little off the passenger side spring. Do you guys think that will work in leveling the sides?

Not to bring up old thread but I had same issue today. Did you take the spindles back to Summit? Or did you have to send back to CPP?
