Cranked up Torsion Key on right side of 03' GMC Z71
hey Guys I have a question about my 2003 GMC 4X4 1/2 Truck. I bought it used over a year ago. Well the otehr Day I was up under neith the Truck and I was looking at the Torsion screws and noticed that the Right side was cranked up and the Left side was not??? I thought that is you were gonna level the Truck that they would both be moved together? Any thoughts on why this is?? I just put new tires on the truck and I am taking it to get it aligned. The truck drives great and no isues at all. I was wondering about this and if I should tell the guys at the shop when they align it? Thank you for all the help.

When I lowered mine last week I noticed the exact same thing on my '04 CCSB, but when I put on the purple keys and measured it out and adjusted it they are almost the same side to side and the truck sits exactly level!

It is set from the factory like that to compensate for more weight on the driver side. The driver (if solo), gas tank on driver side and the front diff is offset to the driver side. Like they said just measure it to the front fenders with about a half a tank of gas and call it a day.
