An interesting theory. When I had H&R springs in my Westy, it leaned and the driver's side rear camber could not be made to go in spec because it was at its max adjustment. I wonder if that adds to your theory or is just coinsidental. Todd '88 Westy Jay L Snyder wrote: >I believe the lean is caused by failed bushings in the trailing arms of the >rear suspension.
