With the leveler missing the back end of the car will be high unless quite heavily loaded.

During most light load conditions, the leveler is actually pulling the back of the car DOWN. It only starts to push it up when there is something fairly substantial in the trunk.

I believe Mr. Allison did this to get a larger range of leveling, and also to cause the overall ride height of the car to remain fairly constant regardless of load.

I think he would have been pleased to see me coming back from the machine shop last week with two straight eight blocks in the back of the Packup, dead level and riding like on glass.
