Ooops! moved some stuff around, and look what it did to my stance

TL, you can comment, by all means.

I just opened myself up to you with my mention of sidepipes and shackles...

So, the consensus is swap the battery and spare tire, then put in the second bucket seat and see what happens?

Do I, or would I ever, need a second battery? Maybe if I put in one of those big thumping stereos? Or just for "ballast"?

 

i have air shocks.....friends say oh yeah...they work awesome.....and you can jack it up in the back....LOL.... i have heard from most of you....that the air shocks hurt traction in drags.... so i will be changing them out

just dont know what shocks to get in back

 

Drivers Side: 40 lbs. of air in tires
Passenger Side: 20 lbs. of air in tires

That should level it out until you replace your
rear leaf springs on the drivers side with
a 5 leaf unit while leaving the 3 leaf on the
passenger side.

littlered

By far the best suggestion so far!

 

I guess what I am really trying to ask is:

Does moving this relatively small amount of weight around typically affect a car this much? Or do I have something seriously wrong with my suspension (other than the shackles, air shocks, and SIDEPIPES!)?

If so, I want to sit in the driver seat next time I get an allignment.

 

I would take the lone front bucket out and remove the battery ... It should now sit level .. if not you got suspension issues ... Also ... make sure you don't have any tires low on pressure ... this will cause a lean as well ...

 

How about if I take out the lone bucket, replace it with a plastic 5-gallon bucket, and put the battery where the passenger seat should be.

FIXED!!!

Are there any reference points where I could reliably measure distances from frame to suspension parts, to verify that I am straight? Maybe jack the car up onto the frame and make measurements, so the weight is not an issue?

Currently, with it on the ground, I measure from lights or lines in the body to the ground.
