I just replaced all four shocks on my blazer, I noticed before that the stance of the blazer was a good bit uneven, leans towards the left. Is there any way to fix this? It is all stock, nothing lifted or lowered on it. I also notice the left tires taking more weight than the right tires. Any ideas.

I did look this up before posting, but I just didn't feel I totally understood what was going on w/T bars etc.

1998 Blazer LS 2wd 4 Door

One more thing, shouldn't this have been checked when I went to have an alignment done last month?

I did this this morning in about 15 minutes to alleviate the uneven stance thing. It worked splendidly! http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f12/ho...y-lean-247314/
