vze2sgxa, how did it go?
Vze2sgxa,

I am trying to elevate my 97 Expy's driver side by 1.5" as both the front and rear are sagging compare to the passanger side.

How did it go with your Expy?

Regards,

yhc

It came up even on both sides when cranking up just the left/drivers side. Just a 1/4 turn did it.
