Yesterday I installed the no-lift OME springs on my rig. Once it was in the air my buddy noticed that there was a slant in the front springs (both with the stock and OME springs). We're not familiar with the nuances of these rigs (since we mainly work on cars). It doesn't look right at all but drives just fine. I wish I got a picture but I drew up a diagram to illustrate the issue. The sway bar is also not completely parallel with the mounts (looks tweaked).

Thanks.

What are your measurements from center of hub to flare on each corner? Putting up a pic would help...
 
When you say it's 'in the air' do you mean it is up on a 2 post hoist? Because as the axle drops the panhard forces the axle to one side which in turn affects the swaybar. It's normal. When on the ground, the springs will be straight.
