It's the little things that drive you nuts and makes you lose sleep. Have a good day and be good. Santa is almost packed.

If you research "Chevy Lean" on Google, probably on YouTube too. It is a known issue with the 63-87 C series, OBS, S10s, etc. Belltech makes a spacer to correct it.

The truck will sit lower on the drivers front, and higher on the passenger rear. If you put the spacer in the drivers front it will offset it.

I thought this might be the issue with the OP question, but he said his had the spacers in both sides. Someone probably added them at some point.. who knows.

Good luck with getting it worked out.
