slight left lean
ok so i havent driven my car in about two days, it was parked on my driveway (rock but smoother on the area we park) as i was taking the cover off i noticed the car was leaning a little bit to the left. At first i thought i was crazy but on my right rear fender well i was able to fit 4 1/2 - 5 fingers between the tire and the body. On the left rear tire i was only able to just barely get 4 fingers in, the gap is also definetly visually noticeable. I parked a few feet further back on my driveway than i usually do so maybe it just wasnt perfectly flat there and over a few days the springs just got stretched and maybe they need to straighten out? I thought ive heard of some of these cars developing a lean before but i could be wrong? Anybody have any ideas/suggestions about my gangster lean? *btw i have no idea what all these random letters and characters are*&\\;amp\\;

well after i got it on some solid pavement, it was leaning a little still, i drove it around a bit and gave it some throttle blips to bounce around the suspension some. It now sits normal. It may be ford quality normal, but its nomal for me! haha

Yes I had the lean to the left as well. My right rear was about 1/2 to 3/4in higher on the right. You would think that with my shaker subs and amps on the right that leaning to the left would be impossible. It bothered me a lot so I replaced the rear shocks and it fixed it a little but there is still a slight lean to the left (just not as bad or as noticeable now). I'll just deal with it for now until it gets worse again and then next time I'll replace the springs and shocks. I have on 06 GT with 36,000 miles on it.
