i just bought a 96 sc300 with jic adjustable coilovers and my drivers side front ride height is lower so i thought they were adjusted wrong...so i pull the wheels of and the drivers side is adjusted higher than the passenger yet the drivers is still lower??? any hints would help thx

 

haha Should have got Stances i mean i loves them, and you can slamm the crap out of them

 

Is the height difference that noticeable? Usually the driver's side will sit a tad lower. Check if the endlinks were installed correctly. Hope your damper isn't toast.

 

The damper itself typically has little to play in the ride height, that is mainly set by the spring.

Over time it's natural for the drivers side to sag a little. Have you measured the difference to see how much they are actually out?

Matt.

 

its .25'' difference but its not just that the drivers side sits lower but its almost raised all the way up thats why its confusing...i would understand if it was set at the same height on the coils and one would sit a bit lower..and also the strut has nothing to do with height does it?

 

pics please. where are you in IL? im surprised that 0.25" height difference is that notiable.

the ride height is mostly a component of the spring thats installed.

 

i evened them out but i had to raise the left side all the way up...maybe the springs are just different height, i mean theres no other explanation???

 

after you adjust the height of the spring take a lap around the block trying to hit some bumps. the coilovers will settle a little then asses the height and repeat if needed.

 

their settled already they look old as hell the strut bushings are starting to collapse i think its time for some new coils....thx for all the info guys
