uneven suspension height??

[clio__chris]

ok yesterday i cleaned + adjusted my fk coilovers making sure they are both at exactly the same height...... however once putting it all back together i noticed the drivers side is slightly lower than the passenger side??

i havent driven it yet but this is obv gonna increase when i get in it

anyone any ideas why?

you on a level surface? might sound obvious, but make sure its completely level.

With them wound all the way down, the car should be level (enough)

Drivers side springs will sag slightly as a driver constant weight on the car will affect the springs.
Otherwise you may have forgotten somehting (not as stupid as it sounds I've put them together without the right bits)

Fred always recommends setting the drivers side front 5-10mm higher than the rest

if they are fitting wrong then they are both wrong so shouldnt make any difference to the height

its only about 5-7mm before i get into it but its noticeable if ur putting ur hands under the arches so i think ill raise the drivers side like 8mm or so see how it goes..... it'll have to wait until next weekend tho

went out driving yesterday and didnt feel too bad and strangely enough it scrubbed on the passenger side (the side thats higher) bit odd
