a very hard ?, need help and ideas.
just had all four springs replaced with the Eibach pro-kit, and had the shocks and struts replaced with KYBs. the ? is in the right rear of the car is sitting about a 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch lower than the left (driver) side. the weird thing about is that it sat like this with the factory springs as well.
what can i do to correct this? could i put a spacer in the springs to give more lift?
its a 1987 Iroc-Z

I would make sure you dont have any damaged components. Also, make sure the springs are seated correctly. Did you do the work yourself or have a shop do it?
I would say you need to make some measurements.
I am guessing that you have determined this by
say eyeballing the fender wells....
1. Park it on a level surface.
2. Measure the distance from the lower control arm mounts to the floor.
(both sides)
3. Measure the distance from the front A-arm mounts to the floor
(both sides)
4. Put the car on jackstands. The jackstands should be under the
a-arms in front and under the axle in the rear. The car must be
a good aproximation of "level"
5. Measure the distance from the spring perch to the frame
(both sides)
6. Measure the distance from the a arm to the K member
This should give you a pretty good idea as to what to do
next....

I'm not sure what year your car is but I have a printout of all the measurement of the chassis for a 91' Camaro, the type that professional body shops use for their frame racks. If your interested I can try and get it scanned for you.
