So I need a fat girlfriend... dunno about that mod.Maybe Jeep did it like a racecar. When you add body weight to the driver side, does it even out.
New JK and Two Questions...
Hello, I just got the new '08 JK last week... a big difference from the '99 TJ I just sold.
I have two questions about the JK:
- I just noticed the new JK sits about an inch lower on the passender's side (yes, I measured it). The suspention is still stock. Has anyone experienced this?
- After just 150 miles the wheels are filthy. Are there any low dust brake pads avalible for the JK?
Thanks for any comments.

Your wheels are dirty from the crap the dealer puts on the tires the over spray gets on the wheels and the brake dust sticks to it. My Jeep also leans to the right unless I'm on a hill with the left side facing down hill 
The spacer will go between the spring and the upper spring seat, disconnect the rear sway bar both sides remove the right rear shock jack the frame only up you then should be able to insert the spacer. reverse

Now that's funny.So I need a fat girlfriend... dunno about that mod.
Mine used to lean to the passenger side a bit as well. All I can say is, I am glad I have those ACOS all around. The passenger rear is dialed out about 3/8" where the other 3 corners are fully compressed and she sits pretty good now.
I just need to find me some 40" tires to give me an excuse to dial them all out the 2" I have to spare
This will take care of your lean http://www.jk-forum.com/showthread.php?t=57502
Over the past few years dealing with JK's on a regular basis, we have seen a few JK's lifted or not that have had a lean to one side or the other.
We have now come up with a solution that will help alleviate/basis the vehicle back to level.
Simply measure the swaybar links that you have on your vehicle from center hole to center hole. Purchase the length needed from our website. Install them and turn the linkage (gold hex bar in the middle) longer on the lower side of the vehicle. This will help bias the vehicles swaybar to compensate for the added side weight or whatever else is causing the leaning.
These can be used on the front and rear of the JK, with or with a lift kit. We offer linkage lengths from 5.5" - 15.9" in 1.4" adjustable lengths. These can be used on all JK Models (X, Sahara, Rubicon) but are not disconnectable.
The links are Heavy Duty 3/4" Solid Hex bar linkages, zinc plated with 1/2" studded teflon lined heim joints.
These can be used as heavy duty sway bar links.
This should only be used for vehicles that lean slightly. Severely leaning vehicles should check for other issues before installing.
Available Now.
