passanger side ganger lean and feels softer

Post by dcashley84 »

current setup.
C&T stock width by otter
2.5 12in kings with 400/500 springs
fox bumps

passanger side seems very soft. when i make a left hand turn i even catch myself turning the wheel right after turn is done to make the front end straight again.
passanger side preload is about 1/4 turn more than drivers side.

if i put a passanger in the car the lean when i turn is even worse.

any thoughts on fixing? maybe a 450 top spring on passanger side, more preload??

It's only on left turns when from a stop or real slow and and the throttle? Spooled?

I have the same/similar issue. Its that soft rear suspension fighting with the spool and sticky tires. It doesn't do it turning right cause the engine TQ works against it instead of adding to it. https://vimeo.com/146720024

I would say You need long arm sway bars in the rear.

It has an auto locker in rear. Alignment just done. I'm putting in a drop pitman Monday to try it out

Does it lift the tire? Is it better or worse from a stop?

i dont think it does but if i make a hard left turn it sure feels like the tire is about to come up.
