Turning left in a corner feels like the rear shock isn't working on the right side . If turning right all feels well. I'm using the stock air shocks with 22 lbs. of air and a lift kit. Do you think it's possible for one shock using the same air system can be weaker than the other. ie: compress more? No complaints on the ride is why I kept the stock shocks.

Thanks for the reply . I'm not losing any air from the system so is it possible for a shock to "blow out" and retain air?
Tried setting pressure to 28 yesterday and didn't notice any improvement but did get a terrible ride.
With the pressure at 20lbs. the ride is fine is why I haven't replaced the shocks.
