Taco Lean Adjustment

Just got adjustable coilovers up front... truck sits lower by 1/2" on driver side. Coilovers are set at 2" height. I'd rather not go any higher up front... can you fix the lean by adjusting the passenger side down instead of going up on the driver side?

 

Driver side will need to be set to be set with 1/4 - 1/2" more preload depending on weight. Not much other way around it. Can do a lean spacer up top if you have adequate threads showing, but easier just to add preload. Doesn't effect ride quality a noticeable amount.

Start by adjusting one side 3 rotations on the adjustment perch and see how it sits (either up or down depending on side). Adjust 1 at a time after until it's sitting perfect.

On my third gen, my driver side is at 21 threads showing. Passenger side 17 threads.

 

Yes, there's no difference between bringing one side up vs the other side down. As long as you have the adjustability in the coilovers (which it appears that you do) then the truck doesn't care. You could also do have on one side half on the other.

 

I literally just noticed this on the front of my truck today and it’s driving me crazy. I thought Taco lean was just a rear end thing. I guess not.

I have Elka 2.5s. I suppose I’ll need to remove the passenger side shock and compress the coil before making adjustments?

 

Yah just adjust the side you need up or down. Good to go
