Since i've installed my OME kit (heavy/ medium) I notice that one rear spring seems to have more arch then the other side, consequently my truck lean to one side. The difference seems roughly about 1/2". I haven't went offroad yet and haven't flex the spring to the max. Do you think it will settle straight?

You mean it is normal?
Yes. It leans to one side or it has raised on one side. There are ways to combat it. Let me see if I can find the threads on it.
basically you put a spacer block on the side that is higher and it pulls it down and levels it out.
hold please...

Waiting on that thread, i'll search for it also.
But what is the cause? just a set of spring with different bend radius?

CCOT sells what they call a leveling block. Basically, it is just a spacer plate that you attach to bring that side of the rig down a little. http://coolfj40.stores.yahoo.net/levelerblock.html
Good luck!

After some chat with the ARB people we will wait more to see if it will settle down, then if necessary shim it. Right now front and rear left side is 1" lower. Obviously there is more wait to the left, driver, PS, Spare. They have been great help, good support!
