Hi Folks

My jeep liberty seems to lean towards the driver side... I started looking at others and they seem to do the same thing...

The degree of incline is the same before and after the lift...

Is there a way to adjust this to bring level (looking from the rear)...

Thanks

they all do it. you could add a couple spring isolators on the rear and a small clevis lift in the front to level.

Hi DirtyKK

Never heard of coil spring isolators before... Not much mechanical experience...

Is there a source for Jeep Liberty springs??? Thanks

i see you have the jba lift in your signature. which lift is it?

coil spring isolators are the little rubber spacer, on top and bottom of spring. its kind of hard to see in the bottom pic but if youre looking where the springs are mounted you can see the little rubber pad.

Honestly I never thought the sag was enough to need all that. But that's me :) I may be concerned Once I get a bigger lift on there.

Here is a photo... Sorry it is dark, it was taken toward evening...

This is with a full tank of gas... It leans about the same about before and after the lift...

This photo exaggerates the leaning a little more then on pavement... My driveway is gravel...

On pavement it not so pronounced...

This help your folks better visualize the degree of leaning... Thanks

I have been looking at Liberty's allot when I drive now, and they all seem to lean...

I will post a photo on level pavement...

I can see the coil spring isolators, can these be stacked????

The degree of leaning is not so pronounced here...

Got a chance to install the coil spring isolators as suggested. The results are good.

Could maybe use one more, but it is pretty close... Thanks

did you try the dealer parts dept?
That way you can get an idea of their price and then take the part # and do a search on ebay or the 'net in general.

Try this part # 52089341AD
