aside from the spring lenght that causes the lean,
also check the body mount bushings on each side.
mine was leaning no matter what springs i used.
turns out the rear right body mounting bushing was a bit squashed.

So that was the reference to "big butt lean"...you are intimately acquainted with that problem.

hehe, john, after thinking carefully, i think the lean is a built in feature in the discos, as much as oil leaks.


so i take back the big butt lean. the butt size has nothing to do with any of this lean.
hehehe

So I guess the overall message of the lean thread is some do...some dont...no real fix...see what you got...carry a 100 lb bag for adjustible lean correction as needed...All of which sounds reasonable and true.

Of course I am not ready to discount the "Big Butt Theory" just yet.

My Disco leans to the drivers side when I'm in it !

I guess that's what happens when you're 6'4" and 240. Maybe I need to put higher rate springs on the drivers side, 'eh ?
