Just out of curiousity, where did you get it from?
It looks like one that used to be around mine and Toms area!

A bad shock won't cause the lean.
I presume it is leaning towards the drivers front spring?

Re: Just bought me an SJ from ebay
yeah it is.. Front o/s. Also its seems stiff when reversing.. I have to give it more revs or its stalls.. could the rear drums be binding? this could be why its so slow too. there was a slight burning smell last night too. But I've put that down to having no oil. also jolty steering on full lock.

Re: Just bought me an SJ from ebay
Ok its going in for its surgery tomorrow! lets see how it fairs!!
Got the spacers for the wheel rubbing problems!
The look very cool indeed! Arches are on the way, but still having trouble finding a new bonnet and drivers door.
Gave it an inside jet wash today to remove all the dirt from the previous owners mud smashing!!
and all the underneath got a good blast too.. still has bits caked on!
wish it luck tomorrow!!
