Hey Vanagon Volks, I started to notice that my Vanagon leans a bit to the left....not in a steering way but in a sitting still kind of way. The drivers side front bumper is about 1/2 inch closer to the ground that the passenger side and it has the general appearance of leaning. I can kind deduct that this is due to the Fridge/sink unit being on the driver's side and that I, the driver, weigh a fair amount more than the empty seat to my right but is this going to cause much of a problem? Is this a sign that I need to get new shocks soon? I don't think the rear suspension is affected but should I look into getting new suspension for all 4 wheels? My Vanagon is a 2wd so is this a common problem with non-syncros? Thanks, Andrew |
