Troubleshooting Suspension Issue

Maybe a silly question but have you driven the truck yet, it may have to settle in being up in the air and not having weight on the suspension?

Let everything settle a little. Make sure nothing is in a bind. If not go drive it a little and cycle the suspension some. See if that helps.

Thanks guys. I've driven it around town some. I even stopped in and tried to flex it up pretty well to see it made a difference. Keep the suggestions coming though. This kind of thing is going to drive my obsessive compulsiveness crazy... Haha!

Does the bed line up with the cab? Maybe frame is sprung from install?
If bed does not line up maybe put some stress on front or rear of truck.

Well you type faster than I, done flexed it some already. I would flex and check for bind, measure frame height, find which corner is needing attention.

Did you tighten all the spring/shackle bolts with it on the ground or in the air? I'd loosen them all up and try and get everything to settle.

Is it the whole left side or just the left rear corner? I'd start by loosening the rear shackle bolts and while under there take a good look and make sure you have the shackles in correectly (if removed) and make sure the springs are the same. Count the leaves and make sure you didn't turn one around. After that I'd be calling ORD.
