I just installed the rc 3" rear leaf pack and 1" rear shackles. now one side is 1" higher than the other in the rear. i think this may be a result of the shackle angle being different from one side to the other. its only a few degrees different but i could see it making a big difference. so why would it do this?:huh:

Let it settle, loosen the bolts on the shackles, bounce around in it take it for a slow cautious test drive. Tighten the bolts.

Don't be too surprised, there has been more then one thread on here where people put their shackles on backwards.
