- Sun Jul 18, 2010 6:34 am #205174 I've got some Tein S. Tech springs with dropzone shocks on my hatch. The drivers side sits about a half and inch lower than the passenger side. Both front and rear. The problem isn't the springs because I switched them around with the same result. What can I do to fix this without cutting the springs or buying new adjustables?

Thanks

- Sun Jul 18, 2010 12:02 pm #205180 what do you mean switched them around you may want to see if 1-the springs are the right ones for the position they are in i.e. front is stiffer than the rear as it holds more weight....

2-they are sitting properly in the perches

3-there is no snag or anything like that.....

- Sun Jul 18, 2010 8:52 pm #205213 I know that they are sitting on the perches correctly and I have the fronts on the front and rears on the rear. I just switched which sides they were on. I think my problem is the car suspension geometry. Like something may be bent. The stock springs were the same way - the driver's side sat lower.

- Sun Jul 18, 2010 9:51 pm #205229 ya look for bent stuff.

you could get a body shop to measure it to make sure stuff is strait

- Fri Oct 01, 2010 3:37 am #216146 same here... driver side is lower... maybe because in japan they sit on the right side hence, it would even out... haha...
