[QUOTE="Wade J, post: 1044288, member: 73574"] Agreed the ‘explorer lean’ tends to happen over time as many other have said because the gas tank and you (the driver) is on that side. New leaf springs would fix it or you can try to swap the driver/passenger leafs you already have. Bushings in your existing leaf spring eyelets my also be bad/wore out also check the back side of the leaf spring where the leaf spring shackle is attached at the frame, there is a bushing inside the frame that could be wore out. Probably take a look at the body mount bushings as well (where the cab is mounted to frame) Ford used a foam/rubber that breaks down over time. [/QUOTE]
