Hi,

I installed a 2.5 RC kit and I see my jeep lean to the passenger side about 2.5 CM, does any one knows how correct the lean?

Thanks in advance

 

Adj rear trackbar to help re-center your axle will help, but most jk's lean abit anyway( gas tank on pass side), when you lift , its more noticable. Some people have been able to adjust their rear and front sway links pass side abit longer( thats if you get adjustables) to help with the lean.

 

Yep many I have seen, including mine do this a little

 

Adjustable sway bar links fixed my lean. I noticed I didn't have a lean when I manually discoed the links. When I got the new Rock Krawler adjustable links in, I adjusted them so there isn't a preload anymore. That per load was causing my lean.

 

Try driving on the left side of the road.

 

I thought I was crazy when I noticed the Jeep leaning towards the right. Mine leans pretty noticeably even with an empty gas tank. It was already lifted when I bought it, previous owner says a Mopar 4" lift. Guess I'll research adjustable swaybar links. Anything else to check for?

 

Seems to me it would be better to add a 1/2" spacer to the springs on the right side than to use the adjustable swaybar links to fix the lean. But that is just my intuition and I can't really say why, lol!

Why would one method or the other be better?

 

Yeah....not sure. Anyone experienced have any thoughts about just adding spacers? Or is it likely something else that should be addressed first?

 

I've been told they all lean a little. Crank up the sway bar links on that side. That might fix it.

 

To add another data point to the "all JKs lean to the right due to the gas tank being on the right" point of view...

Mine doesn't lean. With a scale under each tire, and the tank ½ full, the left and right sides show equal weight.
(And, the front end is only 200 lbs heavier than the rear end.)

edit to add:
I weighed the Jeep back when the only added item was the MOPAR front skid plate.
