I'm sitting here thinking..... "well damn, it drives straight so if it ain't broke...."

Mine leans left, so I fixed the right tail pipe tip & added blinker fluid .

 

[Cjohn098]

Well... damn.

 

[Adamd1984]

Well... damn.

What’s the fuel level of your tank?

 

[STRADALE]

Well... damn.

Bumper crooked?

 

[KnightMare]

Well... damn.

I never thought to use a level lol. Time to add some dumbbells to the passenger side to even it out

Hate to say it, but this is so typical of any Dodge or Ram product I’ve had. It’s not what you would expect from a $100k vehicle. My iPhone has so much more quality control with fit, finish and weight distribution and it’s only 1.2% of the cost of the TRX. Back of the class engineering.

My $100k Ford superduty leaned more than my trx. Them $30k trucks lean just like the high trims. Price or manufacturer has nothing to do with this bitchfest.

Mine seems fine from the driver seat.

I know this has been a hot topic lately. I know there a bunch of upset guys and gals with leaning trucks. Did you notice it leaning when you took delivery or did it gradually occur? How many of you have trucks that are not leaning? If only some lean then I would think it is a problem. If they are all leaning then maybe I can agree that it is the soft suspension. My truck will be here soon and I was hoping to level the front end with springs once they are available. That may not be do able with the leaning truck.

It's the fact that the fuel tank is on the drivers side and it holds 33 gallons which equates to roughly 208 lbs on the one side of the truck and because it is fuel, it constantly changes so it is hard for a manufacturer to dial it in. IMHO

Jeep JK’s lean to the passenger side for the same reason. The TRX has a soft suspension, it’s gonna lean. If not now, it will, when things settle and the springs sag. If it really bothers some people you might sell your rig and go back to driving a Corolla or Passat. Those don’t lean…

Full Tank, but that’s a full 1.5” drop on the drivers side. I’m gonna re-post with a 1/4 tank just for SNG’s

I just measured mine. 3/4 tank. On level ground. Only have about 1/4" low on front drivers side. Pretty even in the back. Not noticeable at all just looking at it. Almost 700 miles on it.

This one is really leaning.

0 lean after rear sway bar install. Measured at 1/4 to full tank and still level

What a rediculous comparison.

This one too:

Whoa, you got serious issues.

To the naked eye my truck looks level. I'm too lazy to go measure. It's hard to find a perfectly level surface near me.
