Consumer Description

I HAVE REPLACED THE LEAF SPRINGS AND THE REAR SHOCKS AND THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TRUCK MEASURES 9 3/4 AND THE LEFT IS 8 3/4 FROM THE TOP OF THE WHEEL WELL TO THE TIRE, THE DEALER AGREES THAT IT IS OFF BUT THEY SAY IT IS WITHIN GM SPECS, THEY HAVE YET TO SHOW ME THIS BOOK WITH THE SPECS IN IT. I CALLED THE GM CONSUMER HOTLINE AND THEY JUST TOLD ME THE SAME THING AS THE DEALER. SO I E-MAILED CLARK HOWARD AND NOW YOU, THIS IS COUSING UNDUE WEAR ON MY TIRES AND I HAVE A WIFE AND A LITTLE BOY TO THINK OF, I WANT TO KNOW IF THEY ARE BEING TRUTHFULL? THANK YOU.
