So i was looking at the back end of my Wrangler last night and noticed that it appears to be leaning to the passenger side a bit. On close inspection, the spacers on the bumper are different sizes as well. Would this have anything to do with it? I checked my tire pressure and they are all fine now, but it still leans. Could it be a shock or something like that? Any ideas? |

You must be new to your TJ. Am I right?
TJs are known to do this lean on the passenger side. If you get on the driver side, it will probably level out pretty good.
This is my second TJ and both did the same lean on the passenger side.

This lean is a bit different. I looks like someone put body lift pucks on the back of the jeep only and they are different sizes, so this might be causing the lean. There are no body lift mounts anywhere else so.......

I gotta agree - the driver's side body mount looks taller than the passenger side.
Was it in an accident and the PO tried to rig something up? |

After seeing the picture, it indeed seems different size body pucks are installed. |

Definetly looks like a body mount problem. I was wondering if the actual mounting on the body was bent/dented up some how. |

Now that some of you mentioned it and looking at the pictures again, it does seem like there is some bend behind the bumper. |

Whats the condition of the body where the mounts attach the bumper/frame to the body???
looks like maybe a body lift went south!!! |
