My old 720 sat lower on the passenger side as well. I always assumed it was because of the gas tank.
Make sure the front are even,it might make a difference for the rear to be one side higher I had a 86 1/2 hardbody with a v6 extended cab automatic 2wd lowered 3inches back in the 90s wish I’ve kept it
my truck is on 4 inch blocks and a leaf flip in the rear and im banging frame on the axle but already drilled mine to go lower when i do a mini notch
Mines just a street truck I'm not sliding this one yet lol
Well when I do maybe I'll be able to throw some sparks at the same time lol
I did same drill job on leaf springs... heads up the 4” drop blocks might pinch the axle and brake lines with the drilled brackets. Clearance is only inches on mine?? Axle to rails and bed....clearance
They all sit uneven. Probably a half inch to inch lower on passenger side. Because of the gas tank.
I had the same problem... And it was the torcion bars.... One was lower than the other...
That would make some difference on the rear
Double check your torshen bar bolts. My 94 D21 single cab was uneven like yours and that's how I fixed it
@@LocalLosers520 when I first lowered my truck my bed was the Sam way about a 1"1/2 lower on one side. In the front it exactly the same. Took me 3months before I finally checked my torshen bolts. Mine where off I reajusted them. After putting my tools up and taking a drive I stopped for pictures. That when I saw that it fixed the rear also
@@LocalLosers520 no I haven't done that yet. When I 1st lowered my truck I did 1 side and a buddy worked on the other some how when we where done one side of the torshen bar bolts was out more. About a inch and a half more. We didn't notice this because the truck looked level in the front. Or maybe it's because it was dark out and we might of had a few beers when doing the work.
I’m in the middle of re-drilling my hangers.. I’m having the hardest time lining the leaf up with the new hole 😑
It almost looked like the sway bar was hitting the exhaust on the left side🤔
@@LocalLosers520 I just got the ar5 trans and shifter, tomorrow I'm getting the explorer 8.8, next will be the adapter kit! Then ls... The hardbody project is moving right along
The front tires are probably not on even ground or the torsion bars are not set with even tension.
Whats ur gamer tag on apex and what system im in oregon with a d21 im slamming as well on all belltech leaf springs,spindles and drop shocks as well as redrill on hangers i went 2in up and 1in over works perfectly
Did you guys ever come up with a solution to the rear shackles having different angles, and the height difference? My truck has one that holds up, and the other does not, I was thinking new bushings (polyurethane perhaps)
@@LocalLosers520 Hey, figured I'd let ya know, new poly bushing for the leaf springs fixed my issue, leveled out nicely.
did drilling the perch and putting the spring higher did it turn the rear end up like a inch or 2.
@@LocalLosers520 does it messup the pinion angle drilling it.and putting it up.
Where did you get the fender flares?
I have a regular cab and I’ve been wanting to do the redrill I’ve heard I have to space my carrier bearing do y’all by chance have any insight and on the bed difference have y’all removed the little rubber bushing between the bed and frame you may be missing a some or one side may be more worn then the other that was my issue
By removed I mean have y’all removed the bed or do you know if the bed has been removed and check the body lines if they don’t line up then there’s either something in between bed and frame that’s missing or not supposed to be there
How much u want for your old shocks ronnie?
5” bolt will hit the gas tank! I used 4.5” and I barely had clearance and you will have to thread the bolt into nut on the gas tank side with 4.5” bolts
what size bolts and nuts did you use for the re drill?
I thought they sold bolt on lower hangers.
not that I know of.
Just flip the springs upside down with 3 inch blocks it works and you would probably need to run 15x8 or 15x10 on 195 I did it to my 720 Datsun and it sits on the ground i got a Nissan hardbody with flipped springs and 5 inch drop blocks and people think it’s bagged but nope no air bags 😂
Local Losers 520 💯 people think I’m crazy I’m from Hawaii so the roads are bumpy a lot of the people just broke neck 😂😂
you forgot to post the infamous nissan link for the template guys lol... :)
Whoa buddy. How can you deal with that stock exhaust. Must sound like smothering a mosquito.
Get louder music makers. Magnaflows fancy muffler is a quiet option tho
How much fuels in it? Hardbodys lean = weight of fuel
Gotta think there's alot of weight on the passenger side of these trucks, fuel tank, battery, only thing on the driverside is the exhaust besides that there's no weight on the driver side, put a fuel cell in the center and you'll notice the difference
Lol, if u don't have a drill with a level..ummmmm get one? Look forward to the mod, thanks for vid, seems like torsion bars was why uneven but I see no update what it was,. Maybe u did in another vid, anyways... Wish me luck🤙
Mine sits off to the passenger side when I have a full tank of gas
Can I drift on lowering blocks?
I was doing shit like this back when I was in high school lmfao, y'all doing this with receding hair lines and shit 😂
Naw, I had better things to do then hope other ppl like my videos I post 😂 but I do remember doing little bitch mods to mini truck when I was like 17 😂
@@LocalLosers520bro 🤦🏻♂️ you don't get what I'm says at all. Im basically saying I'm more grown then you 😂
@bagged Q45 It's interesting how you think your opinion matters to anyone else but yourself.
@@RealityUntold damn I waited a whole year for you to reply lmfao aye, guess what. Fuck your reply 😂
Gas tank

Your face is over sized 😂😂😂😂

@@LocalLosers520 The rear is on concrete but the front is in the grass.
