DOES YOUR TRUCK NOT SIT LEVEL? RIGHT REAR IS HIGHER THAN LEFT REAR

[chuck s]

IF YOU STAND BEHIND MY TRUCK PARKED ON LEVEL GROUND THE RIGHT REAR SITS HIGHER THAN LEFT....KINDA AGGRAVATES ME CAUSE ITS ABOUT AN INCH. DONT TELL ME ITS GAS TANK AND STEERING COLUMN...BECAUSE MOST OF EXHAUST IS ON PASSENGER SIDE ETC.... DONT BUY THAT AT ALL... MOST ALL VEHICLES HAVE TANK AND STEERING ON DRIVERS SIDE AND THEY DONT SIT CROOKED... JUST CURIOUS IF OTHERS NOTICED THAT AND IF THERE WAS A FIX OR PROBLEM FOUND.. THANKS

Mine sits about 1/2 lower on the driver's side. I bought it new and I noticed there is a shim on leaf springs on that side as well. So it looks like something that was done when it was built to try to minimize the issue. It is not something that bothers me.

Anyway here is a rather lengthy thread on the issue:

No sir, mine sits level. I think I'd take 'er in, and let the dealer have a look-see.

Why are you yelling

 

[MTB-BRUH]

I’ll give you my typical reply.. It’s just a truck. Also your gas tank..

Don't take it personally. We're all a newbie at some time, I've only been here a month.

You will find a thread with this title on EVERY truck forum, regardless of make or model. Nature of the beast.

so you claim, however someone was nice enough to share a thread on this and i appreciate it and learned a lot... but most all of it is in regards to 2019 fords, being i have a 2021 and its a couple years later maybe someone heard something new on this matter

Nothing new... your 2021 has the same rear suspension as the 2019.

Did you go out and look at your trucks rear springs and see if it has a spacer like they discuss in the other thread?

Interesting thread.

My truck also has the nice shiny shim on the drivers side.. but none on the passenger side.

Built July 2019

You were blocked? And, yes, all caps is hard to read. I prefer all lowercase to all uppercase.

I just measured our 2019 SuperCab.
At the top of the wheel trim arch the passenger side sits 1/2" higher than the drivers side. It has the shim on the drivers side.

I'd have sworn my truck was level.

My advice... Manufacturing tolerances happen. It's a mechanical thing... let it go.
