2011 kw t660 leaning on passenger side??
I noticed a couple months ago my truck was leaning a good 2" lower on passenger side than drivers side. I checked the springs for cracks, replaced shocks, steer tires, alignment and still the same. I also changed sleeper air bags, shocks 1 month ago. I cant really see the cab bushings that well they are tucked really good under passenger seat area. Any thoughts? It's starting to bug me now.

Is it the body leaning or the frame?

Right side steer leaf springs could be worn causing a lean due to engine torque twisting the body towards it.

8-bag? The "KW lean"

Pete's do it too. They seem to be using cheaper and cheaper materials. My pass side was 1.25" lower, driver side measured correctly. I ended up putting two new springs on and re-shimmed. Like mentioned above, find a good level slab and get to measuring.

As said already, its the passenger leaf spring.

Do I just replace with new oem spring or get a stiffer spring?
