Rear end at different heights

[Neilc]

I think there was a post a while ago about one side sitting higher than the other after using lowering springs. If there was one could someone please post a link as I can't find it.

I've got a similar problem, I've put Eibach springs on and the passenger side is about a fingers width higher than the drivers. (With no one sat inside) any ideas? It's getting looked at tomorrow but thought I would see if someone already had the answer to make it easy

jack up rear both sides. measure the hang. if equal then you've prob got badly matched springs with different compression rates. or could be a nackered bush. could be a small child trapped in the suspension somewhere. could even be a stashed bar of gold secreted somewhere off to one side...have a look... :wink:

I'd start by checking the springs have located properly, easy to check the rear after a quick jack and wheel removal. Could one spring have been fitted upside down?

If you got it fitted by a mechanic I'd take it back and get them to check.

At least it's the rear that's the problem so no need to drop the struts out the bonnet... every cloud and all that
