I wonder if there's anything that can be done to balance the Westy's
side-to-side weight distribution?  Wait (or is that weight?), what I mean
to say is, is there anything that can be done to tune the suspension to
compensate for all of those cabinets, the stove, sink, fridge, water
tank, propane tank and big ol' driver all being on the driver's side of
the vehicle?  Oh yes, and don't forget that heavy driver's side mudflap .
