You were blocked? And, yes, all caps is hard to read. I prefer all lowercase to all uppercase.
I got blocked BECAUSE of this!!!!! I'll have to go back and see who it was now! LOL
Sometimes you just gotta have emphasis on some words!

Oh, was that the locking gas cap thing? That seems, er, harsh.

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

WHY ARE YOU YELLING

Mine sits 3/8” lower on the left rear. It’s only noticeable if I’m parked or stopped on uneven ground. Ford says this is “within tolerance” so no remedy there. I’m going to address this with new leafs when I do my lift.

About every other Ranger I see on the road has this issue.

I noticed this at first when I was trying to get my trailer hitch set up. One side higher than the other In the rear. However, I installed air bags and it seems to have resolved. roughly an inch difference before. Now less than half an inch between sides. This could be because the air bags air making up for a weaker leaf spring? Who knows, but there is a definite before and after difference with the bags and the sides are much closer to same measure.

If you ran separate air lines to each air bag you could "dial it in".. :idea:

I did this back in 1977 to level out my 1970 Nova...

I saw your post. I didn't read anything into it other than just warning that it wouldn't fit. Seemed innocent enough to me. I haven't seen anything on this forum to make me block someone. Some things are certainly unnecessary, but I have an uncanny ability to self-ignore a-holes.
