    Well my first gen suffers from the Taco Lean, and things have been slow at work, so tomorrow, I'm going to try and see about getting some leaf pack spacers cut at work tomorrow.

    We have plenty of scrap.

    I think the thickest we have is 3/8" Mild steel, and everything in between.

    Any thoughts?

    Also, would there be any interest in a product like this?

    Oh thanks, I didn't see it on their site. Never thought to check their vendor page either.

    Disconnect the sway bar to see the "true" lean.

    Lean is basically static sway, so the sway bar is preloaded when the truck is sitting on the ground. The lean is worse with the sway bar disconnected.
