hey all , after a weekend away in my zook on the way home i noticed its unusually soft on the right (drivers) side, on inspection its sitting about 1-2in lower on drivers side both front n rear, and is really boatish to drive. just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction so i dont have to spend money on things that dont really need replacing as money is short atm... both f&r leaf shacklessit further out then the oposite side aswell, thinking the shocks may be shagged or flattened leaves
cheers

Flattened leaves for sure. Mine have recently done the same thing on the same side after hitting a bog with a bit too much pace. 105 bucks each for new efs 40mm ones from a local suspension shop.

Not really hey! Regardless of the spring coil or leaf, that's not gonna fix the actual problem of the sierra's overall weight biased to the driver's side.
YNV17 what leaf are they? With my setups i usually keep an extra leaf in the DS rear pack to try and counteract the weight difference.

So how many leafs left in total? Peps I know that run kings have 3 leafs per pack and seem to work well with minimal sag. When you do get them reset ask for the DS to be ~20mm higher than the PS.
