01 Jimmy Lowered Uneven Drop

[lil_italy773]

i have dropped my jimmy 3" in the back and 2" in the front. the left side is almost 1" 1/2 lower than the right side both front and back is like this. i used drop blocks in the back and just took out the torsion key bolts out to drop it 2" in the front. what could be causing this anyone can help thanks

you got 2"s in the front?!!!!!!!!!! I did the same but i got maybe 1" in the front. The front you will have to adj. the bolts till its even. The rear i couldnt tell you, maybe check the blocks and see if they are the same. Might no have the blocks in right

yeah its right at 1" 3/4 drop in the fron after ther t-bar keys was removed. the real looked ok but ill just have to look again to make sure. its got me stumpped.

I know that on the 2wd s10s and Blazers, theres this thing called the "Chevy Lean", almost all of them lean to the drivers side, it varies on the amount that it leans though. On your 4wd, idk, maybe you didnt get back together right

So you removed the key? or did the flip? or took the adjuster bolts all the way out?

My s-10 definitely has the lean, though mine is a first gen.

Not sure if that carries through to the newer models like lil italy's

My buddys 01 Dime leans horribly, its almost a inch and a half

Ive done 3" blocks in the rear and screwed out the torsion adj. bolts. I got about a 4" drop in the rear and maybe 1" maybe 1.5. I dont have a lean but i have just a bit of uneven front to back. Also got alot of squeaks but no suspension problems (knock on wood).

[lil_italy773]

i had the squeaks but it only lasted bout 15mins then it went all away. ok so its just natual for the truck to lean is what it sounds like. kinda sux but i guess i can live with it thanks tom and anyone else that has anymore input

[tommyk90]

I think part of it has to do with the gas tank being only on the driver's side as well. 10+ gallons of gas isn't light. I think it makes it lean from the weight of the fuel and then it just kind of wears the suspension down over time.
