Need some help here.

I have a 92 XJ 2door sport... yes it's 2wd :( ... but anyway...

Before lift... XJ was nice and straight.... all even and level. Raised Jeep 3" with Pro Comp lift , which also had the add a leaf in the rear....

well.... now the back right.... passenger rear... whatever.... is 1" lower than the driver rear.....

what is the issue here?

Do leaf packets go bad one side at a time? If anything, there is more weight on the drivers side....

HELP!!!

I have knowticed this on alot of XJs inculding mine. The only thing I've been able to come up with is the way wieght transfers when accerating it all goes to the back and right an may cause that spring to sag. MY RE leave arent even a year old with very very little miles on them and the pasenger rear saged. I knowticed it even more when I did the long arm witch seems to transvermore wieght to the rear than the short arm set up I had.

The only thing I've come up with is doing a a single air bag on that side like some drag cars do. I can't wait till I do this since it will also help put the power down better.

it's the way the torque is transmitted...the way the pinion twists simply...causes the pass rear to squat....the XJ lean...

I have had two now they both lean in the rear, as was stated before it's an XJ thing. It should make you feel special like all the rest of us.
