Hey All,

Just finishing the lowering of my body onto my frame. I'm about to get ready to add the hardware for mounting the body so right now I have the body sitting on 2x4 blocks that are between the frame and the body blocks and I notice my body is leaning to the right about 3/4”. I measured the frame to the floor at the rear corner and it's off the 3/4”. I put a 6' long level across the top of the front tires at the axles center and then a 2' level on the front cross member above the front axle and those to are the same level. Yes, both levels have been calibrated to one another.

Is the fix for this is just to loosen and re-tighten the U-Bolt's for the front and rear axles?

Regards
Bill
