Front or back?Originally Posted by Intrepid_Vanguard
I know there's a little bit of a problem of the rear wheels becoming un-centered as you lift higher, just because of the geometry of the VX butt. Is that it?
Also, is it possible someone left a spacer on a wheel? The fronts wheel hubs are pretty space constrained, and someone may have used a spacer to get some aftermarket wheels on.

Calmini actually includes a panhard rod drop bracket in their lift kit that I've not seen in any others. I'm not sure if that fixes the problem but mine has it & the rear axle isn't shifted.

It is the front passenger side. I bought the Vx with the lift so I'm not sure if it has the drop bracket. The mechanic took all of the wheels off and discovered no spacers. He lifted and reset it down on stands to see how the vehicle "spreads out'. he said it looked normal when he did it that way.

Improperly indexed passenger side torsion bar?

The way he's describing it, I don't think so. The torsion bar will only move it up & down, not in & out.

Nah, the bracket I'm talking about is on the rear drivers side.
Your problem boggles the mind. If anything on the suspension was damaged to the extent to 'draw in' that wheel under load, your mechanic wouldn't be able to get it aligned properly.
Swap that rim to the drivers side front & see if the offset is the rim (only thing it could be in my mind).
BTW, what do you mean 'sucked in'? Is that tire farther inboard on the vehicle or is it tucked up into the wheel well?
