98 Tj Right Side Suspension Lean

[thumpergtivw]

I have a strange 1 inch height difference from left to right side and not quite sure when and/or how this came about.I have a 98 sahara tj that 6 months ago WAS stock. First thing i did was installed a 3 inch urethane spacer lift from fat bobs garage that comes with pro comp shocks. running 31's. Secondly, i installed a 1.25" body lift with urethane blocks, and a transfer case drop. Running pro comp 35x12.50r15 mud terrains. Now, I already checked the body lift from one side to the other and no difference. Now this week i installed rough country 4 inch lift springs and all 4 lower x flex adjustable control arms and rear track bar. I thought the springs in the rear was the problem since there is a service bulletin out on r rear spring sag in which rough countrys rear springs are 2 different thicknesses and heights to correct the problem, BUUUUT ! STILL LEANIN. PS, my coworkers teraflex 4 inch lifted 97 does the same thing.

That's pretty common, engine torque shifts weight towards the passenger-side springs and the rear spring takes the majority of it. My R-R spring has sagged nearly an inch from this issue.

jerry when you have to lift the rear for other work do you think it would be a good idea to switch the rear springs from side to side every once in a while?

It couldn't hurt if you're bored & have nothing better to do.

I think the rear track bar has a lot to do with it.

My TJ used to lean to the passenger side slightly, but after installing a 4-link kit in the rear, it sits perfectly level.

2x on the track bar.. my OME 2.5 lift came with the common relocation bracket this is what caused mine to sag do to to much pull. I removed the dang thing and got an adjustable track bar and once I realigned it all was good and no sag now.
