Anybody having any problems with rear suspension lean? I just replaced my add-a-leaf with lift springs and since I lifted it 6" a year or so ago I have been leaning to the drivers side about 1-1.5 inches. Anybody had this prob or a solution. Thanks

I have experienced it, I think it comes from flexing one side more than the other, or just cheap springs that aren't consistently made. Might be time to get a set of quality springs. WHose 6" springs ar eyou using?

Mayeb try compressing the tall side for a day or two straight, that might relax them the same amount.

One option is to swap the springs side to side. Not uncommon for the different sides to experience different loads, especially under acceleration. Swapping the springs side to side will even out the settling. Might also want to closely examine the leves for damage, perhaps you have a broken or bent leaf on one side.

And also check the front end. Often a small height difference up front can be magnified into a big difference in back.

I just put them on this morning and never drove an inch. Pulled it down off the rack and it was sitting like that. Now, I did have this problem prior to installing the new springs as well but I thought it was just from the crap stock spring with aal and block. I had hoped to remedy this with new springs but I guess not. I just got All Pro offroad's 5 inch spring pack. Should I say the 4th pair. As it turns out I ended up test fitting their new spring by accident and was the unlucky sack that found out there was a manufacturing issue. Any ideas now that you know there brand new springs?

From your handle, it sounds like this is a Tacoma, but not stated in the post. Not sure if they have asymetrical springs or not, if so, make sure they are on the correct side. Try taking the springs off and compare them leaf for leaf, check thickness and arch of the individual leaves and see if there is one that is different. A bit confused, how many springs are you talking about, stock+AAL or AllPro 5" or what? And with new springs, they will settle, it may be that you just need to drive it around a bit to get the high side to come down a little.

Yes it is a Tacoma. They are same spring rate, shape size and number of leafs (7) per side. I think it may be a matter of what you are saying that they just need to settle, or at least I hope that is the case. It's been one giant pain in the arse with these springs but I have stayed the course knowing that All Pro is going to reward my efforts and understanding. Problem is my truck is about done short of a SAS and that will come later. Thanks for the info/help.
