Noticed the other day when washing the car that my balt sits lower on the driver side than the passenger side. i am on sportlines. went to get one of my rims fixed and the guy at the dealership said he has it on his camaro, its called the chevy lean lol ive never heard of this wanting to get some opinions. thanks guys

 

bump anyone got any ideas? maybe a blown strut or somethin.....

 

You sure your on even pavement? I have BC coilovers, on even pavement, the 2 fronts are even and the 2 rears are even, on uneven pavement, sometimes one wheel will have a good amount of wheelgap than the other.

How much lean we talkin here?

 

Possible blown strut?

 

yep im positive. 2 finger gap from the fender to tire on the right rear and no gap on the left rear

 

if its a blown strut i may just wait til i can afford coils in the spring

 

thought springs keep you afloat...not really struts?

 

^ my SS/NA on sportlines and KYB's has the same, though i dont think as big as a two finger gap.

used to be caused by the gas tank being on one side and wearing out the springs ( look at GM Trucks), but the cobalt tank is on the right, car leans left. makes no sense to me

good point, forgot to mention that, Springs control ride height, shocks/struts control the oscillation of the spring.

 

i would park somewhere like a garage floor thats completly level. Check it then and let us know, Are you on stock suspension?

 

No gas cause lean?

 

keep the fat chicks out of ur car jk

 

someone has to give your mom a ride!

 

I've seen several cars do this, not just Chevys. It can be irritating, but from my experience it hasn't been anything to worry about.

 

haha i have a no fat chicks sticker on the car. but im on sportlines with stock fe1 suspension yea

 

I have it too. And i am on coils. And no matter what I do I can't get rid of it.

 

i got it with my sportlines, and my struts and shocks are brand new.

 

I don't think it's that serious... I'm pretty sure it's just like havin weight in yer car to let your springs settle... I'm sure most of y'all drive the Balt by yourself more than you drive with a passenger... That side of the car jus settled more..
I havent noticed so far(25k) an wasn't there in my old car (92k miles)

 

i laughed haha
