WHY in the hell does it sit lower on the driver's side??? Fawkin pisses me off whats the cure? stock springs on a 72 w/ add a leafs. WTF??? does it ever end? Seems like its the front driver's spring sagging but I cant tell

Make sure you check that all the tires hold the same necessary PSI. Sometimes it could be bushings or mounts. RUST

:rasta: It's a fawkin Scout, whaddya expect? :rasta:

I read the BB FAQ A long time ago and it said no one knew why... Not enough rust to cause it. bushings are all new poly and springs are in fairly good shape??? WTF? :confused:

You been letting to many fat girls drive your rig again. :D :D :D

no one knows... simple as that.


*my* suspition is sliple weight balance. There is more weight on the driver's side than the passenger.

Battery, Steering Box, Steering Column, Gauges, Petals, Spare (well, from the factory), and more often than not, the driver and no passenger. They are heaver to they lean to that side.... sometimes alot.

My rig, all new front springs, perches at the same hight, mounts all the same... sags on the drivers side....

Time to re-distribute some weight.. :D

mine too brand new springs and bushings and it still sags on the drivers side??? i dunno?

Well, *MINE* sags on the passenger side.

The *suspension* doesn't, but the body sure does.

While wheelin' you can feel the floor smacking the frame.. I think the body mount is long overdue for replacement. :D

It has nothing to do with the scouts... its the owner :D :D :flipoff2:

Am I missing something? The Fuking spacer! Install a spacer on the high corner to lower it. Jesus. For a bunch of "hard core" wheelers... :flipoff2:

Sure, throw that spacer back in there, and take ANOTHER half inch clearance from under the springs of an already poor suspension clearance SUA scout. Heck, might as well just put one inch blocks under it and make a cool lowrider out of it!!! Thought this was a HARDCORE ROCKCRAWLING BOARD not a mall lowrider board. Sheesh

:D


And who cares if it sits half an inch low on one side or the other. How often are we on flat trails where you can even see what level is? Course, if you spend a lot of time at the MALL....

OK. I'm done funnin ya. If it bothers you not to sit level, put the spacer back in. Here is my mall cruiser complete with my Boy Scout Mall Rats...

Dude SUA's are where it is at. If International wanted Scouts to be SOA that's how they would have came from the factory.

I wheeled the sheet out my SUA, but I wanted to be like everyone else, so I went SOA.

Don't forget the rigid ladder bars to keep the wheel hop down with those lift blocks.. and a body lift and some lowered bump stops are :grinpimp:

Sheeple. Like a Sheep blindly following along behind everyone else, doing what everyone else does.. because everyone else is doing it.

Can't think for him/her self.

What is funny is that we do call that our gang sign. :) We go around flashing it at each other all the time....

take the little block from the passenger side sua, and swap it to the drivers side soa, then on top of that (since you welded the new perches in the wrong location) put your degree shims so you will have a better drive line angle and even more negative caster, make sure your degree shims don't have centering holes, that way everytime you get through wheeling it you can loosen the ubolts and relocate the axle with a come-a-long. Then you will be cool as me:rolleyes:
