Ok guys, help me out. I got my flip done on my 87 gmc and I noticed the driver side is one inch higher than the passenger. I'm not sure if it was like that before I did the flip, I assume it was. Anyone know what might cause this and how I fix it. Also on my leaf springs, I just took out my top overload spring. I left the rest, even the really thick bottom spring. Should I take more out, will it lower it more with more leafs removed? Thanks!

Probably just needs to settle. IIRC, mine had a little gangster lean to it right after I dropped it.

Drive it around for a while and see if it settles.

...and I wouldn't take out any more leafs if you plan on "using" it. I 86'ed my upper overload but retained all the rest of the springs. Rides fine, and I can still load it down when I need to.

Well hopefully that is the case, I forgot to mention I haven't put the bed back on it yet. I have drove it probably 100 miles or so, but no bed, I just rigged up some temporary lights. I have decided to paint it, so before I can put the bed on, I need paint the back of the cab and front of the bed.
