Thinking of adapting some of those hydraulic bumpstops to a hydraulic pump feeding a computer controlled valve block controlled by a gyroscope thus not only being able side to side but forward and back as well. How much is going to be enough - say 6". First kits will be about $15k but that will come down once I out source it to china probably 10-11k but well worth it

If the car has one person in it most of the time then it will most likely lean that way
Some quick ideas on how to fix it *Sit on the other side of the car when you drive *Get a fat arse rotund girlfriend to go with you everywhere - the lean might happen on the other side then *Swap springs form side to side (this will fix it for a short while *Get springs that are a slightly higher rate for the side that leans compared to the side that doesn't *Get airbags for the back and pump up the leany side more than the non leany side
There is probably more ideas out there. BTW it took me longer to make this shit up than search for the real answers all of dhula's ideas are great but he forgot the normal byronbay thing which is to get a stonner to sit on the side of the car that leans the most. he should keep that side higher than the other the other surgestion is helium ballons on the inside or outside of your zook. keep adding ballons and stonners to the side thats dropped and stop when its level. cheers glad i could help

I swear when you lift and don't fit adjustable panhards, or if you ain't adjusted yours enough it pulls the drivers side down a bit. Your axle is fixed to the body via the panhard, so you put bigger springs and it pulls the axle to the drivers side, but it also bananas the springs towards the passenger side so you have introduced a force pulling the axle to the passenger side, and so that force is transmitted through the panhard to the anchor point on the drivers side and the drivers side sags a little. Not always the problems, but might cure a couple of cases of lean. it's easier to think of the reverse. Imagine you over extended your panhards but didn't raise the ride height. It would force your drivers side into the air more then the passenger side since the panhard is anchored to the drivers side. the reverse is true in some cases if it's too short I think I'd draw a pitcure but i can't be bothered

I did this and it's working for me. I would like to mess with it a bit and see just how much extra rate is required, but haven't as yet. I have some chat about it in my build thread and in a thread in tech, I would post a link but...  ...you get the drift.
