ranger is taller than the other side????

[rustyr182]

i have a 98 ranger 2wd and it is taller on one side than the other and i cant figure it out its off by almost an inch on one side. i know its not the front end coils because i have put different coils up front lift coils and the stock coils and were still the same. and i dont think the shocks are bad because i replaced them all. can the rear leafs if one is shot cause the entire truck to sag almost an inch?????? i forgot to mention that is sags from the driverside front and back 1 inch any help guys

yes rear spings can cause the truck to sit unlevel.

time for new springs

How do the body mounts look?

if its leaning to the driver's side ........ its the gas tank.

i was thinking it might be the gas tank but its almost empty and still sags alot i think its the leaf

if u don't rotate the coil springs so that the top end of each spring is against the metal "stop", one side of the truck will be higher than the other ( I cut a coil off each of my springs and didn't pay attention when I re-installed them & had one side of the truck higher--made me think I cut too much off one spring till I found out what I did(or didn't do). Hence:just plain stupied

coils are seated just fine im buying new leafs today for 50 bucks of a 2002 with a add a leaf and load assist spring great deal

Check your leaf spring brackets and shackles for rust.

I asked a guy this question at les Schwab. He told me that all trucks sit that way even from the factory. I would assume its cause of the gas tank. I have a lifted tuck. He said thats whenyou notice it more. I am not sure how to fix it though sorry.
