Why do SD's Slope down in the front?

Why dont they just level it off out of the factory? I Dont like How its all sloped, it looks like if i stop hard enough the whole car is gonna do a nose wheelie . But Its Not that bad.

Why do SD's Slope down in the front?

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 12-Jul-02 AT 06:57 AM (EST)]It's because the SD is made to work , if you were to fill it full of bricks, the truck would be level. Better than full of bricks and nose high!! It's all about the payload.

That and they new Abendx collects those pink panties, and after seeing some of the pictures of those BIG girls on here, they new those XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL size undies whiegh a lot!!!, they wanted the truck to sit level when he was on his way home from a date!!!!

Yeah, lots of big panties on the mirror could easily weigh the front down!

I got the snow plow prep package to correct that problem so its sits level from the factory. Although the extra money I spent for that package will be wasted when I put the lift on soon.

Actually, the nose does not slope down at all, the rear end sticks up!!! You just need to change your frame of reference. As mentioned, it is set up this way so it rides level when loaded and working the way it is designed to do.
