Consumer Description

VEHICLE IS ONE INCH LOWER ON DRIVER SIDE. VEHICLE IS EQUIPED WITH FUEL TANK ON DRIVER SIDE, AND IS PRIMARILY OCCUPIED BY JUST THE DRIVER AND AS SUCH, WHEN FUEL TANK IS FULL, THERE IS APPROXIMATEY 450 LBS. EXTRA ON THIS SIDE OF THE TRUCK. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, I AND OTHERS BEGAN TO NOTICE THE PRONOUNCED LEAN IN THE BODY OF THE TRUCK. I AM NOT SURE, BUT THIS CONDITION MAY BE A SAFTEY PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE AND I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT ADDRESSED. VEHICLE SPRING RATES SHOULD TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE LOADING DIFFERENCES OF DRIVER AND FUEL. THANKS, JACK S.R.COPP. NLM
