| Hard Lean
For some reason my Bomber has a hard lean to the right. I didn’t notice it until I took off the sway bar. I have tried adjusting the preload, but it always settles back. As far as I can tell nothing is bent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Might be over filled on the drivers in one or both? I'd take the shocks off, compress em by hand and compare them all to each front and back. Check for sticky links. Any mods to it? |

The only hardware mods are the rear-steer. I was starting to think about the shocks not being right when I posted, so I will check them. |

Switch shocks from side to side, left on right and vice versa. If it leans the other way, its the shocks. If not, is something binding?

In the one photo it looks like you're missing a spring cup on the one shock. That would do it. Do all of the shocks move smoothly and extend all the way? |

My car did that from the panhard or staring link not being able to swivvle enough. I had to change the 20 degree bent ones for straight ones. It compressed funky too so it was kinda obvious. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |
