Just bought the beginning to our dream overland truck :) a 2011 hilux duble cab 3,0 automatic 150000km.
Really happy with it only mods rock sliders and some som minor DIY stuff.
To the problem the car are 20mm lower at driver side both rear and front it happened out of the blue suddenly it's leaning lik a wounded battleship. A changed the upper controll arm ball joint on the right side after tha I begin to notis the lean but probebly it vas there befor.
Kan anyone help me with finding a cause to the lean ?
Don't want cha springs to find out that it was something else. Can I be the sway-bar ? Is it the frame ?

Tanks for the help !

Does the car have dual batteries and are they on that side?
If so, that will be the reason

Yes i has one at each side. The car was level when I bought it something has happened since. The mechanic tough I was that the left coil spring has Collapsed an seams that hi is right because it differs in the distant between the coils. So bought new front springs. Hope it's them that's causing the problems.
