Thanks! Question, my 74 CJ has a slight lean to the left. Nothing broken or worn.what’s the remedy? Shims?

There's a lot of that going on...and for a multitude of reasons. Start by measuring from the ground to different points on your CJ... different parts of the frame, spring hangars, body, etc. Where the difference is, lies the issue.

Shims are one way to fix it, but it depends on where and why. A lot of us just don't bother.

I'm 3/4" low on the driver's side. My PO cut the spring perches, turned the pinion up for better driveline angles, and welded the perches back on unevenly. It's only off by a touch, so I don't worry about it.

Looks like only the rear left of the body. Everything else is within 1/8”. Not a rust out issue but maybe a body mount. It’s only about 1/2” but drives me crazy.
