Leaning to the Left

[RB60]

Walking up to my 25 Fieldmaster, I looked like it leans toward the drivers side. Thought maybe it was a parking lot angle.

Got it home and in the garage. Measured from the floor to the bottom of the outer fender opening. Centered with the front wheel.

Yep, it's off about 1/2 inch. Seems like that should be no big deal but its noticeable.

Weak spring? Knowing me, this will bug me. Not sure the dealer will want to do anything but I'll ask.

Any suggestions? Wonder if I could add a spacer?

The fuel tank is on the right. Fill it up and measure again. That I’ll put 145 pounds on the right side. If it’s still way off then take it to the dealer

That's a known issue with some of them. Don't add a spacer. Take it to the dealer. Show them the measurements. They have a Technical Service Bulletin for it and will replace the springs under warranty to fix the lean.

Are you sure about that?

I'm afraid @rob88 is not a Grenadier owner and judging by some of his comments in various threads clearly hasn't even read the Grenadier's owners manual. He has come " clean" about his status in a recent thread, but please be cautious over any comments he may make.

Mostly posting misleading nonsense that confuses owners and prospective owners.

This rob88 is of no use on the forum. Mostly posting misleading nonsense. @Krabby and @Stu_Barnes If you have time. Please go through the posts of this member. I’ve called them out several times and they still post misleading nonsense.

rob88 seems to be a troll.
Part of his forum name, 88, is used by neo-Nazis as a disguised Hitler salute: the eighth letter of the alphabet is H; 88 therefore stands for HH, an abbreviation of ‘Heil Hitler’. Says Wikipedia.

I appreciate the comments. I will call the dealer. I am awaiting a new media dial CCI unit to come in as mine squeaks. I'll ask about the the lean.

Just looking at dealer photos of new Grenadiers, some have the same leaning look and some don't. That's totally visual. I actually took a level to the front and rear bumpers and rear roof. Yep a slight lean. I really don't want to level it out with reducing air pressure on the passenger side.

Just for interest, I'd love to hear what other owners measure with their vehicles. Maybe it's within tolerances?

Whatever rob88 is. They are a liar who claims to have a 2” lift 2022 Grenadier in the USA with a failed prop shaft at 18000 miles then turns around in another thread to say they don’t actually own one.

While my take on rob88 is far from certain, I have seen no indication that his use of 88 is nefarious and linking a member with anything Nazi related without cause isn't acceptable. I am fully aware as a world-wide forum, global events are seen through different eyes, but making that connection makes me uncomfortable.

Simply put, he could have been born in 1988 - maybe owns a SWB Land Rover (which have an 88 inch wheelbase) - maybe he's a Dallas Cowboys fan where jersey number 88 is a significant number often held by their best wide receiver?
