explain this to me...

When I first got lifted I had 285 MTR's and could barely squeeze into my garage. now since then I've put on the 2"BL and 35's.... l now last week, I took off my rack so I could pull somewhat into my garage so I could work on replacing those knock sensors, and low and behold, I could barely squeeze in, but I did.


Now obviously my suspension will have sagged a little bit over time, the front used to barely clear some cabinets that I have in there, but the front was in theory where it should be with the additional lift of the BL and the 35’s. My only explanation is that the rear has sagged much more than I expected or have noticed, since I put the rear bumper on.


Any other thoughts?

I've had the same suspension lift for over 3 years, been very happy with it, but shear logic tells me i shouldn't have been able to get in there.

front- 882's/HD shocks with revtek drop kit and ats arms
rear- 891's/HD shocks with OME trimpackers

maybe the house is expanding, it is summertime

actually house to expand and shift, normally, homeowners will never see this, but its quite common for a house to settle/shift a foot over time.... i dont see how it would grow though.... that's an odd one

tread wear would have a slight effect.
