I just put a 4.5 rustys suspension spring lift on my 99 xj xherokee. It look pretty good but if you look closley and then measure one side is about an inch higher then the other. I thought i pu everything on right and i cant think of anything but it braking in to levle out. Any commets would be usefull on what i should do
thanks

If its the rear, loosen up the bolts at the leafs a bit, jump up and down on it a while, drive around the block, and tighten them back up. Sometimes they will bind up if tightened too much before everything has a chance to seat.

If its in the rear i would loosen everything like said above and allow things to settle a bit before tightening things. I am not sure if i would drive it loose tho.
if its the front make sure the spacer and or springs are seated correctly.

im guessing one side, driver or pass, is higher. if its on the driver side maybe when you get in it will level out if its the pass side idk.
