Hi F150 members,
Background: 1995 F150 XLT 4x4 standard cab long bed 5.8 engine 98,000 miles.
I recently had the shock towers and coil springs, shocks replaced and then noticed that the left side of the front end is about 2" lower than the right side.
during this repair, all new parts were installed exactly where the original parts were located. Nothing was altered.
its easily seen when standing in front of the truck on a level surface. Using a level from on top of the front tires and measuring to the bottom of the fender is where I took the
measurement.
I checked the rear springs and shackles and all is good. also checked for broken/rotted body mounts to frame and again, all is good.
So, what else could be causing this list on the left side?
Anyone out there ever seen such a problem? If yes, what can be done to set the front end back to level?
Thanks for any ideas you can share.

 

are front struts/shocks adjustable? may be set wrong. springs could be different length. maybe different part were put on. I would jacks the truck up, pull the wheels and start measuring to see where the difference is.

 

 

Are you sure the spring is in the correct location on the axle on the right side?

 

Shocks don't affect ride height. If you just paid someone to fix the suspension, and it's not, take it back to them and let them inspect their work.
