Pitch and Roll off?

[JustinJ]

Hello Jeep family,

It reads rolling 1 degree off to the left when parked on a completely flat ground after installing a spacer lift kit no matter driver in or not. I wonder if the lift kit caused it? Your Wranglers are accurate on this? Or it is just another Wrangler manufacturer imperfection?

My OCD is acting now…

Anyone has the same experience? Thanks for sharing folks!

The fuel tank is on the passenger side. Have you checked just after filling up?

Mine pretty much always read level until I lifted it, and then it was off the same as yours for about 8k miles and now sits level again. For me, I am assuming the springs needed to settle down a bit more, but for you, it should pretty much read level from the factory.

Might also be worth taking a look without sitting in the vehicle. It might just be body weight, or have someone jump in the passenger side as well and see if that levels things.

It's possible that one of the spacers isn't seated properly, i.e. the nipples on top of the rubber didn't align in the holes on one of them. That's just enough to set it off honestly. One of the springs could be clocked differently and might just need to be rotated in the seat.

If you park in the same spot pointing the other way does it still say it leans to the left?

Mine is always like that, I’ve noticed the same thing. Straight from the factory. Body weight would be an interesting explanation.

If I recall correctly the stock springs are 155-185lbs per inch front and rear. That's a combined rate of 340lbs/inch. A driver that weighs half that would drop the drivers side about .5" I'm guessing that's good for at least 1⁰?

I think your Jeep is saying you're fat

Years ago I had a friend who's mom drove a Cadillac, one of the big land yachts. The tire shop couldn't seem to get the front end aligned. Her son would bring the car in, they'd align it, but it continued to wear the tires. Finally, they asked how much his mother weighed. They had to align it with her in it. Does any of that apply here?

I just went out to check and my pitch and roll is not working at all. just dashes. that is with vehicle running.

lol nope. I am a fit and cute fellow. So no. No way to be overweighted due to my weight

You meant hung?

If no one is in the vehicle, ur wrangler still rolls or 0 degree? Just curious

You would have to be a cute and fit dwarf to not impact the roll of the Jeep.

Try putting an equally sized person in the passenger seat and see if it balances back out.

get one of those FAB digital angle reporter and see if the Jeep is really off. Quick search did not provide any dance move to have the angle to be relearned like the internal compass.

Mine shows same, and no lift or mods.
