HELP WITH FRONT END SUSPENSION?

Asked by Rebecca Oct 17, 2020 at 02:38 AM about the 2002 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT Quad Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have an 02 dodge ram 1500 4 wheel drive. And it is
leaning on the drivers side. The torsion bar recently
fell.out again for a second time. I and  a few mechanics
have looked at the torsion bar and keys and they dont
appear to be bad and I have replaced the whole front end
back in April amd that when the torsion bar came out
originally then drove it over 2k miles and then it came out
again but right before that it was created and cracking
which made me feel super uncomfortable. I since have
replaced my shocks and linkage amd a few other things
but I wanted to see what else it could possibly be th as t
would cause it to lean? Ot sits all the way down on the tire
amd it shouldn't be that low.

Leaning would indicate the spring on that side is defective or something is cracked or broken. Was the vehicle ever in an accident? What about the control arms? I am surprised with the parts you replaced, that the shop didn't find anything wrong.
