2001 Jimmy Leaning

[lgareiss]

I have a 2001 jimmy and it seems to be leaning towards the passenger side. I took it in and they fixed the ball joint, but it still leans considerably and rides like a log wagon... any suggestions? the dealership says there is nothing wrong. I have an extended warranty but they don't seem to want to help since I bought it used.

My 99 is doing the same thing. I put it on a hoist myself only to notice that the passenger side front tire is not hanging at the same level the drivers side is (its higher). I am looking into a (torsion bar) ride hieght adjustment, as it appears that there is not the same amout of tesnion being applied on the passenger as the driver side. So far, the only driveability problem is on right hand turns, it corners like a log wagon .
