    So I am at a loss with this taco lean, maybe someone has dealt with this before and can give some input. I tried searching but it seems I have a severe case :confused: here is the breakdown:

    2011 access cab 4x4
    OME 885's with 90021 soft ride struts
    Drivers side 10mm trim packer (for the lean, didn't seem to help)
    1/4" top plates on both sides
    Spc uca's
    Dakar elr095's
    OME 60091 rear shocks
    Bfg k02's 285/75-16
    Method nv's 16x8, 4.5 bs, 0 offset

    Somehow I am sagging a full 1" on the drivers side (measured hub to fender). I already have the trim packer installed for the lean, but obviously it is doing nothing. Does anyone have any possible remedies/ever seen a case this bad? It does appear my bed is slightly misaligned, shifted towards the drivers side. Could this cause the lean? Should I swap out the 1/4" top plate on the drivers side with a 1/2" plate and remove the passenger side spacer? What would you do if it were your truck?

    Move the fuel tank and battery to the passenger side :D JK I have a 2011 also and had over 1" lean. My sons 2015 was the same.... The only real way to correct it is get "true" adjustable coilovers. I put kings on the front of mine with 2" more pre-load on the drivers side to correct the lean. Bling with no lean:cheers:

    It looks horrible and I'm tucking the front drivers side tire enough that it's hitting my inner fender, while the passenger side clears without issue. Just want to be able wheel without rubbing on the sagging side
