Little problem with a arm

[fastyz85]

hey guys here is a pic of my quad's frontend. As you can see in the pics the left side is slightly higher than the right side. I was wondering what would cause this and how can I fix it? I think it might be the balljoints because i might have the top one on the bottom and vice versa. I really want to fix it so I can get the most performance from my suspension.thanks for any help.

This may be a given, but do you have the ride height set the same? Does it do the same on flat surface? Sometimes the ground can make suspension do funny things just looking at it.

Also, if a rear tire has a considerable amount more air, it will make the front end sit cock-eyed like that. Check the fronts while you are at it, the right tire looks flat.

yes ride height is set the same and i will check the air pressure in all four tires but i also had 450r shocks on the front while the PEP's were getting serviced and it did the same thing.
