Not sitting level.. After leveling, Question.

[InfamousZ]

So, i put a 2.5" faction fab leveling kit on, and passenger side front and rear are perfectly even,
the driver front is .25" less then passenger side but the driver rear is half an inch less than that.
and measuring the frame also shows the same difference.
my question is what could be doing this? level went on fairly smooth could i have messed something up? rear driver shock bad?
driven about 10miles so it sould have settled in by now.. getting an alignment soon.
wish i would have done a before measurement beforehand.
any ideas are appreciated!

Specs are 5/16 In - Side to Side is in Tolerance Variance- So the Front is in Spec

The Rear is out of those Specs - But you also have to factor in the Gas in the Tank, could be part of it.

I have not lifted or leveled, hopefully someone who has can give you their outcomes on measurements.

120.5 lbs for a full tank of gas is sitting on the LR

Most Rangers are low on the drivers side rear, about 1/2 ", which is strange because the left rear spring has a shim under it ? meaning it must have been REALLY bad before they caught it...

From my experience a good shop usually does a better job of fading it not dead stop the paint at the end of a panel.

Trucks in general, tend to list a bit. The Ranger is no different. Maybe it’s gas tank location, maybe it’s engineers trying to account for driver-only use. Mine is pretty much dead level, as was my 2001. As well, things may be a bit different after your alignment.
