    Truck Is Leaning On Passenger Side

    My 2017 2500 is leaning to the passenger side up front.

    Noticeable about 3/4”.

    Now I’ve taken it to two different shops one being a RAM dealer.

    Neither can identify the issue.

    I noticed the lean after I took it in for some recall work (drag link nut).

    Hoping someone could shed some light on the issue...truck only has 37xxx.

    Check the caster adjustment.

    It should be the same on both sides.

    On the radius arm trucks when the caster settings are different side to side it can cause a lean.

    All of these trucks lean to the passenger side.

    I have brand new ones from the factory that do this. I’ve been fighting it with caster adjustment on my 19 for awhile now.

    Every time it gets adjusted it seems to fall back to where it was.

    Yes, check castor! Mine had been doing the same until I took it back in for the alignment. Tech who performed the alignment even mentioned that castor was off causing a lean. Also if you go for an alignment I would recommend following Thuren alignment specs, at least for toe. Solid axle vehicles should be close to 0, unlike independent front vehicles. Factory specs call for a bit too much.
