I have just fitted some second hand 11 leaf spring to my swb and it now leans over to the drivers by 2inch. I suspect that I have fitted them on the incorrect side. I did look for a part number on them but couldnt find it.
Are they directinal as well as left hand/right hand? Is there another way of checking with out the part number?

I suspect the only way is to swap them over.

i had this problem with my old springs, a new set from land rover at 50 quid a piece cured the problem

Fit a set of parabolics. That's what I'm gonna do.

just spoke with a previous owner and it has always leaned over to one side. He also fitted new springs 10 years ago. I suspect the chassis is at fault mainly the rear cross member.
