springs....

Got a question.. Just bought a 2012 250XL 4x4. The distance from the top of the tire to the fender is 3/8 of an inch higher in the front than the back. any reason for this? don't have the plow prep..

All Most all trucks are uneven. that's why you seen a lot of post asking how to level a truck on this form.. You say that the front is higher.. most on here are asking how do i make the front higher to match the rear. the front spring will sag out over time. your front springs will settle over time. if it's a new 2012 just Drive it and check it again after a few months.
