My RR County has a tendency to lean to the right (passenger side). I noticed this after I bought it used about a year ago and thought that maybe it was just the springs sagging.

Once I installed new OME HD springs front (751) and back (762) along with new OME shocks it still leans.

Upon measuring the wheel wells from the lip edge to the ground I have found that the right side sits almost exactly one inch lower than the left (drivers side).

Now the 265/75 BFG MT's rub sometimes on the front passenger fender.

Does it just need 'orthopedic' spacers on the pass. side? Any comments helpful.......Thanks!

Well, they all lean. It's designed to sit level with you in the drivers seat. Personally, I prefer it to sit level when I'm looking at it, so I did the spacer thing. One inch is a little too much lean though; I think you'd need to be about 530lbs to level that out!

Or you can try swapping the rear springs side to side....drivers to pass and vice verse...Jeep TJ guys hav ethe same issue and the swap works. The chassis is torqued to the pass side because of the driveline setup....
