there are a few ways options are -remove leaf from lhs (if not already removed load leaf) -swaps springs left to right or -new springs dont bother with resetting springs. i did the research on it and they nearly always sag back down fairly quickly. plus it cost a fair bit to get done |

it is a little car. most blokes weigh 10% as much as there sierra, plus all the other stuff heavy stuff like a battery. in the front of mine i have 4 leaves on the passenger side and 5 on the drivers, 6 on both sides in the rear and mine flexes well plus i have no axle wrap problems.

Mine sags down on the drivers side like I think it's a few cm withought me in it.. It sags cause u got ur spare tyre u got ur battery u got ur steering wheel and all that u got the diffs and the carby.. Friggen everything Is off to the right lol. And that's withought an 80kg driver |

The Lovells lifted springs that I got are taller out of the car on the drivers side, which corrects the lean perfectly once installed... Pretty sure any decent quality springs will be the same... |

yep - mine with stock springs had the lean, then had 2" lovells in which corrected that and gave me lift etc... now SPOA on lux leaves and no lean, which is weird cos its only a 3-leaf pack (soft). mrRocky's LWB leans like hell =) but he's like, 15ft tall and rarely has a passenger. |

Minus diffs. Unsprung weight, springs are not supporting them. Adding an extra leaf to the drivers side usually fixes it Dan |

Haha just an example buzooka 
An yeh dan ur right I didn't think of that. Mines a coily though so I don't really know what to do about it.. It's got a 2"spring lift and it's still saaaging. Dad reckons I should swap the springs around but I don't think it would be worth it.. |
