Re: Truck Sits Crooked

Yes it sat this way before the springs that's what made me believe it has to be a spring right. I put the drivers side in and what do you know it leveled out I was like sweet. I got around to doing the passengers said and back to the Lean. So should I inspect or just replace all body mounts.? The back window is pretty level but here is the thing the truck was in some accidents before I had to realign the bed I am thinking but not hopeing that the frame may be bent.

Re: Truck Sits Crooked

This is the first time heard that it was the cab mount bushings. Good call, maybe that will help other people that have this same problem.

Ahh, hmm it might be a combo of both? you might wanna measure both your springs and see if they are the same measurement?
Just though I would throw in how I solved my problem. cause on these older vehicles those things get bad and it sits all crocked lol.

Your frame might be bent "lets hope that's not the case"
