Default Sitting uneven.......after lift?

2007 LR3

I installed the Proud Rhino 2.5 Lift Kit from Lucky 8. Now my right side is sitting slightly lower than the left side. The front right is definitely lower than the front left; I measured it while on level ground. Not sure if the back end has the same discrepancy, haven’t checked it.

Not sure if it’s related to the kit or not, but I never noticed it until after the lift.

Any ideas?

Pull them off and compare lengths. If the same you need a calibration.

also, maybe rubber pieces are bunched up/ half on?

The EAS system has a calibration setting using something like the gap tool to reset the values leveling the truck

Do you think that’s something I could have done while I wait? Bear Valley Land Rover is a decent drive from me and I don’t have a GAP tool.

Yes, takes an hour or less. But for the price they are going to charge and the gas you are going to spend money on the trip, bite the bullet and get the Gap tool.

What abran says, for that car a GAP tool is really the first thing anyone should buy.

Yep, another vote to buy the Gap tool! It paid for itself twice over in the first month I had it!

GAP Tool and rock sliders have been my two best investments in the LR3.
