Alright folks,

So i had the mechanic throw in my front set of Eibach Sportline springs, 2 days ago.

I noticed from afar that the driver side is lower than the passenger side, and once I got the car back home on level pavement I noticed just how much of a difference there was.

Driver


Passenger


Any reasons why one side is higher than the other?

It makes me curious if the passenger side could have been slightly off when it was being indexed.. I haven't had a chance to talk with the mechanic just yet...

And I've read everywhere on here that springs don't settle, but rather the rest of the car settles around it... Any chance that could take place and even the sides out?

One last thought.... Is there any way shape or form that the front sway bar can have ANY effect on this? As in bushings, end links, anything at all??

Thanks

 

They probably aren't indexed properly.

 

Ditto, could be a problem of not being indexed on the a-arm aide or not seated into the pocket up top. Could also be that the insulator moved on one side or was not used. You'll need to reinstall the springs most likely

 

It will all need to be checked out.

 

or on the lower side your mechanic forgot to put the rubber isolator back in, maybe stuck to the old spring??

 

Let us know what you find.

 

I'm going to go with the spring didn't go all the way in the pocket....

I had the same thing happen on my iroc...

 

When you check, scrap the stock isolated and use some heater hose, just as good and easier to work with.

 

Good idea Tibo.

 

I'll let y'all know what comes from it, it might be a while before I can get this looked at but I'll try to make sure and post back. Thank y'all
