Not 5th gen related but still stumped
Ok so I'm building a 87 TA. It has coils on the front. I'm running a 10in 150lb springs.
The passenger side coil adjustment is 1 1/8in more than the driver side. The ride height is the same and the car isnt full weight yet. These are strange springs. Think I have a bad spring?

1.125@ seems like a lot but not knowledgeable on that. on my fifth gen the coilovers on the passenger side, front and rear have to be adjusted less in height to equal the drivers side. The difference depends on the amount of negative camber. Two different sets of coilovers and a set of drop springs did the same. The drop springs weren’t adjustable, so passenger side a 1/8” higher.

third gens springs need to be indexed in the lower control arm or the heights will be off. check out thirdgen.org for more info. lots of good info.

Contact Rodney at Suspensiongeek.com. he should be able to help with the issue. He set up my Vikings on our 1LE and the rates and corner balance are perfect. He does quite a bit of setup and help. He may even suggest a better spring rate depending on your goal with the car.
