Today I c notched and 4 inch lowered my truck. Now left side is rubbing bad and right side is about an inch higher than the right. Before I C notched it I had just the 4 inch blocks on and it was mostly even and no rubbing issue. I understand the rubbing come from there being more clearance for the axle travel, but I don't get how one side is incredibly higher than the other. What could be the problem? Note it also has bistein shocks
