So all my left I have 2.15 inches of rake it on my right I have roughly 1.65 inches of rake
Did you measure with a driver in the truck? What (everything) do you have in the truck and bed, and where? Is the ground you parked on perfectly level?

this is actually the second time I’ve measured, once with a 1/4 tank of gas and now a full tank. 28 gallons of fuel dropped the left rear down 1/2 an inch.

nothing is in the truck or the bed, 100 percent stock.

no driver.

perfectly flat surface.

if 28 gallons of gas drops it down around 1/2 an inch, a 200lb driver won’t get it down even, lol.

also, this is the third truck I’ve measured in the same spot and my other two trucks weren’t leaning to the right, lol. Most they were off is 1/4 inch which is understandable based on me not knowing how much fuel they had in them when I measured.

Cool, 6 hours isn't bad at all.
