Default Does anyone elses Explorer lean to the left

Our 2000 Sport had a 3/4 inch drop. I measured from the bottom of the shock
bolt to the ground.

Our old '98 used to be half inch lower on the left side measuring from the
ground up to the center of the wheel opening....on level ground.

Mine leans to the driver's side -- I don't know if that's the side
yours leans to, as you have a UK mailing address. It didn't do this
quite so much when I bought it, but it hasn't affected the alignment.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is a "70 pound chained?"
