Really wanted to get the Mopar lift at my local dealer. They are actually pretty good and srvc is great. Arrived today for something else and they have a shop build on display.

Wanted a chance to see the lift and install quality. Immediately went to the driver wheel.

A lot of bow and I'm not even sure the spring is seated correctly. Bottom of spring looks shifted. Can anyone confirm?

Definitely not right at all, but common with those lifts. Most users opt for the replacement spring pads from teraflex to correct that. Supposedly, mopar upgraded the ones in their kit, but many here question that.

That’s just wrong. Whether it’s the Mopar spring, or jacked up dealer install, dunno.

I have the mopar lift and the subsquent mopar fix to the bowing springs....but your spring is just messed up.... it should be replaced.. The bowing that is expected is a slight bow to the outside or wheel side. There should not be two bends.
