something looks very wrong with that!

it looks like its been raised in both of them :S

have you taken any of the interior out??
 
  Ph1 track 172
ahh looks better now, must have just been the angle,

have you checked that the shocks havnt sieze??
or have anything stopping them going down??
and that the spring is seated properly??

pehaps thats just how 30mm springs go on the rear,
they never do exactly what they say on the box,

maybe mate ......i almost bought some 90mm drops for the rear but i think ill try 60mm first ...i think its causing problems with the fuel tank now sitting like this
