Dropped Ride, One Side A Lil Lower Than The Other?

[toicy4ya]

Sup Guys,

I recently dropped my GS Spyder using Teins S Tech (1.3 drop) Lowering Springs and KYB Gr2's However, I noticed that the passenger side is just a little bit higher than the drivers side. Anyone ever experience this?

Are the correct springs and shocks on the correct corners?

Uneven suspension can be caused by several things..

First off the springs could be off a bit in spec which is common for cheap springs but not for Tein's. Double check to see if you have the right springs in each corner, if you have a rear spring in the front it could cause issues.

Secondly you could have put the shocks back together wrong, put a bushing in the wrong place or forgot one of them. You can check this by measuring the amount of thread that is beyond the bolt end on the upper strut plate.

Thirdly you could have a sticking bushing, basically the inner sleeve has galvanicly welded itself to a bolt thus causing added bind into the situation.

Fourth and final is you have a bent arm in your suspension that is causing your problem, this isn't as likely as the suspension arms on the DSM cars are rather beefy.

fifth Make sure the surface you are testing on is perfectly flat and level

It is normal for DSM's to sit lower on the driver's side. I had the same question when I installed my pro kit.

This could be a few things:
1. There could be something in your car on the driver's side that is heavy
2. A person inside will make it uneven.
3. The surface you are on may be uneven.
4. Shocks/ springs may not of been adjusted exact
5. I would say gas tank but that's the opposite side

-That's all I could really think of.
