An oldie but a goodie...driver side lean

[papabeach]

Looking for opinion/advice here...

I have 1" of drivers side Front Lean and 1.5" of Drivers side Rear lean. Up front I have 5 year old Toytec coilovers (600lb) and 8mo on a set of new 861 springs/Tokico shocks in the rear.

I am admittedly heavy...
-Shrockworks front bumper with winch
-CBI rear plate bumper with dual swing arms and full sized spare
-Shrockworks full skids
-WMW full length roof rack
-Stubbs sliders
-Rear drawer...full of tools and ARB fridge on top.
-Sometimes RTT but currently off.
-BFG 285 all-terrain T/A KO2s

Do I...

1) add 1"/1.5" spacers and call it a day
2) upgrade front suspension to heavier rated coilovers, spacer in back...600lbs are probably a little light for my setup but it works just fine
3) just deal with it...it only looks bad to me and most of the people on this site
4) lose the skids...I just moved to FL, don't need them much here anyway
5) other options/thoughts?

Thanks in advance...old topic but perhaps there are new thoughts, lessons learned.

Yoytec front driver 1/4" spacer and ome rear 10mm trim packer fixed my lean for cheap.

When did the lean show up?

What changes proceeded it?

Also did you recently have the front suspension installed? The Bilstien kit has pass and driver shocks, swapping them takes the truck fron flat to leaning a bit.

Lean showed up after rear bumper install. Front suspension is 5 years old...it pre-dated all of the heavy additions...bumpers, sliders, roof rack and skids. I am just shocked the 861s didn't hold the weight better

Is it possible you have those OMEs in wrong side around? The OME2906s are side specific, not sure if yours are too.

That is a lot of lean, you really have 1.5 inches from side to side?

Yup, just remeasured...still at 1.5 in back...front 1-1.5.

Also, I called Steve at Sonoran Steel and he advised me to check and see if I blew a bushing on any of the control arm. Since all of my control arm bushings are original and I am at 200K miles I am sure most aren't in great shape, just didn't think they would possibly related to this...

So, now I am starting the bushing replacement process...needed done anyway, what can I say...hopefully it will help. If not, it will surely improve the ride.
