Need help with suspension

So my truck is leaning 1 inch lower on drivers side. I jacked it in the air and everything felt solid. It is driving me nuts! I swear at my work every perso walls buy and says you know your trucks leaning.

 

Stock suspension? Front and rear. Tundras do develope a drivers side lean over time due to the gas tank but its usually only about a half inch. Post pics so that we can see what you are dealing with.

 

Welcome from NC! This lean is normal. If it bothers you add a CB shim to the drivers side.

 

An inch though? Seems like quite a bit.

 

So I was reading about a shim. What is a CB shim? Does it set on top of coil ? I just traded in a 2020 Chevrolet Trail Boss! I wanted a tundra but slim pickings I had to go to Raleigh to find this one.

 

Yes on the mark! The back is fine.

 

Thanks I will.

 

It is a shim that sits on top of the coil designed by Coachbuilder. His products are top notch, many members here have his shims and rear shackles.

Welcome aboard from The Pacific South West.

 

Whoa! Traded in a 2020 Trail Boss, if you don't mind me asking why? I almost bought a 2020 Trail Boss before deciding on the Tundra. If it wasn't for the a-hole sales man I would've signed.

 

A shim is the new word for a spacer. Lol but serious !

 

Maybe I missed it, but did you recently lift or level your truck? Is your truck completely stock? Could it have an un-shimmed leveling kit on it from a previous owner that has sagged over time?

Mine leaned 3/8" after lifting, which is quite less than you are mentioning, but I was able to correct it with the shim others have mentioned...

 

OP has a 2016






Also, Welcome from Wyoming, OP.

 

Oh hell, I'm in the wrong section. Someone tagged me but it's gone now. I'll see myself out.

 

I couldn't pass up the opportunity to prod you on it. You've hit me with memes enough that I had to!

 

So I just didn’t like trail boss ! I had a tundra before and my son drives a Toyota Tacoma! So this kind crazy but the trail boss sticker was $56,500 I paid $46,500, they gave me $50,000 for it on trade for tundra. Plus the tundras way better lookin.

 

Yes it has has a lift but I don’t what make or how big

 

Is that normal for the tundra lean?

 

Your gap between the bumper and the grill looks uneven to me.

 

Like @Tundra234 said, that gap isn't normal, but that is also not the common Tundra lean either. It looks like that bumper has been moved about and wasn't properly aligned afterward. Possibly from an accident if you bought used?

 

To me it looks like the drivers side is higher but the bumper gap is throwing me off.

 

I think the driver's side looking higher is an optical illusion because of the angle/rotation of the camera. If you rotate the image to get the top of the grille level, or use a piece of paper, it looks pretty close to level with the seams in the concrete. I could be wrong, but the only issue I am seeing is the bumper is definitely lifted on the driver's side.

 

Ok thanks so I bought it used and the car fax is clean. So when you stand behind it looks leaning as well. I didn’t even notice when I bought it. Guess I’ll start readjusting the grill and bumper

 

I agree....I think its just the bumper. Im not seeing a lean at all.

 

I think it might actually be the passenger side grill and fender off

 

The gap at the top of the grille (between the bulge and the grille) looks pretty symmetrical to me in that pic. Could be wrong, but I don't think your grille is the issue. I can't see any of the gaps on the fender, but I'd compare them to the driver's side. If they are relatively close, then it's probably your bumper.

 

Measure each wheel from the center of the hub to the top of the fender and let us know the results.

 

24 inches on drivers side from center cap center, 25 inches on passenger

 

Appears to be a lean and just not bumper misalignment. If the truck has an aftermarket suspension that could be the reason. A lot of folks here upgrade their coilovers and notice a lean afterwards. When I did mine I put a shim on drivers side. The OEM coilovers were marked Left and Right I assume to account for the heavier weight on drivers side (battery, driver, gas tank etc)
