I dont understand this problem.
I had king springs on the front of my hilux. When they are new the driver side spring has more camber than the passenger side, as to allow for weight of driver,and supposedly there is meant to be more weight on driver side of vehicle.
But from new when I put them in the vehicle it was leaning down on the passenger side around 25mm.
So I bought a new set of H/D carrolls springs (EFS). Again the driver side has more camber. And it still leans to passenger side 30mm .
OK, I have a second battery on passenger side but could`nt see this as a problem especially when they are just fitted .
The rear has only 5mm lean.
Have equal tyre pressures all round.
The guy at carrolls said they normally lean towards the driver side thats why they make the driver side with more camber.
I have`nt give the vehicle rough times as to twist the chassis.
I`m thinking of replacing the passenger side spring with a driver side spring ?
Has anyone had this problem ?
