I recieved my 2001 X Sport because of a Cosign Deal gone bad. Great shape just needed some cleaning and lots of TLC. All Maint brought up to speed new windshield, New Brakes, 45K No dents No dings pretty nice SUV. I own an 02 F150FX4 and really like these Fords.

I am very sorry because I am sure someone has already asked this question but please bear with me.

Mine leans to the Left in the rear!!!! Why? How do I fix this?

Why does it ride like a lumber wagon on steel wheels?
I checked Air Pressure, it is right on, 30PSI Brand New Mich x Terrains. Every bump feels like the dash is going to fall out. Sounds like everything in the back is loose. Is any of this normal?

It will never ride as good as your F-150, it's just not big enough to dissipate the bumps well. Your shocks could be worn out though.

And Welcome!!!

Ahh the left lean, just about all explorers have the left lean. you gotta think, there is always a Driver in the left side and the gas tank that contains 140+ lbs of fuel is on the left side of the truck.

Glad you like the New truck. there is a search feature on this site that you can use to find fix attempts and further investigation as to why the Explorer pimps 'leans'. the search button is near the top of the screen with all the other greay buttons, i hope you enjoy this site!
