Installed shackles (from wheelsnparts w/ greasable fittings), evened nicely. Full tank of gas gives driver side 1/4 inch rake, passenger 1/2 inch rake. I measured from the top of rim to fender, and yes there is a slight grade on the driveway here. This is just enough for a light, evenly weighted trailor. I do not haul anything. Yes, its dirty, jus rained....
