Just installed newly rebuilt shocks set to mid perch and my front is sitting about an inch higher than the rear.....not really sure if its supposed to settle or what. Springs are seated correctly the rear doesn't have shackles or anything.
Any thoughts?319ccebcc4c7c210cc6e2a3f5bb1f9d3.jpg

My Gen 1 is mid Perch and my back is about 2 inches higher than the front. Maybe you're rear suspension needs serviced

It's Deaver time...
Haha I'm not against that but scratching my head...was there even leveling kits for the gen1? I wasn't looking for it when I changed the shocks so may have missed it but doesn't look like it from what I can tell. Only other guess I would have a0eca6b7a5d0e496f7b94648f92aff95.jpg57c7747fa3322e1b4696e8d9af320a6c.jpg

I have a picture somewhere showing stock rear springs make 44 3/8" where your showing 43"
Something is off, take a picture of the rear shackle, someone may have added a longer (drop down shackle).
