Hello Guys,
I have my FJ80 1993 here in Ecuador which is inclined to the LEFT. A few months ago, the old owner who sold me the rig, told me to go to the shop from his friend as the new shocks and spirals had arrived (Part of the deal). So, I did. I admit I never noticed if the rig was inclined or not back then. So, I was getting EIBACH 3" Spirals installed, and Pro Comp shocks. I don't have the specifications but I'll do my best.
Any way. Ever since the installation, maybe a month or two later according to me not before, the rig is inclined to the left. Every day I notice this perhaps getting WORSE, maybe its just me. Any way. I am tired of this and I need to know what options or what could be wrong. I took it to TOYOTA once as they owed me a service, and had every part of the suspension tightened, adjusted, and everything seemed to be the same.
Its been like 4 months since then, and still like this. Today I gave up. I pulled out everything from the car, and measured the separation from the RIM edges to the fender and had HUGE differences. Excuse my cheap drawings and pictures. Measurements in CM's, not Inches. Look at the level it shows the thing to be totally inclined.
FRONT: There is a Difference of about 4cm in the front inclined to the left
REAR: There is a difference of about 5.5 cm in the back inclined to the left
Any thoughts, ideas? Thanks you
PS: No, its not the tent, It was like this before the tent
Pic 1: The Level on the center console. Means car is totally unlevel to the left,
Pic 2: The Level on the trailer hitch .
Pic 3: Note the car incline
Pic 4: Left Separation from rim edge to fender
Pic 5: Right Separation from rim edge to fender
