Well my front was fine everything assembled correctly, spring setting in the correct perch etc. However my sway bar end link is sorta bent...not sure if that will effect the height on it or not?? I really hope it does so I can put a new one on and that fix my problem...I only drug it once and that was almost a year ago, and it didn't effect my height or anything on my stock springs so I'm not really sure if that's my problem. But it scraped the frame, and part of the sway bar (directly under the sway bar end link) So I'm sure that's how it got bent, as I'm the only one who has ever drove it, and that was the only time its been drug.

From ground to the bottom of the front fender on the low side/correct side (drivers side) is 28.5 inches, and on the passenger side is 29 and a quarter.


Bout to go check my rear and see if I can see anything...

Well I took them back off and checked everything looks fine other then the sway bar end link...Still the passenger side is prolly 1/2 to 3/4 on an inch high sigh...So when I take it to get it aligned imma have him check everything again for me. I originally was going to have him do it, but he was gonna charge like 250 to put them on and align it lol...But I'll see what happens sigh...Thanks everyone for the help tho I appreciate it

Hey there! So definately get that endlink replaced ASAP. You're not going to cause any damage, but those endlinks should be perfectly straight to get the most effective use out of your front sway bar.

If you get a few minutes today please take a picture of your ride height, and maybe a shot with your wheels off the car. My feeling is that your car will settle over the next few days, but send us some pictures to info@pfadtracing.com and I will take a look for any installation issues that may be going on down there. There isn't a reason why your car should sit higher on one side than the other, so lets work together to get your issue taken care of!

Thanks for your help man!

You ever get this fixed? My passenger side rear has sat about 1/2" higher than my driver side ever since I installed the springs. Since I just installed new axles, I took that side apart again and checked to make sure everything was good. I can't find any issues and it still sits higher.
