yepp had both the lower ends of the springs facing the driver side...do you think it might settle out in a little bit..its about a 1/2-3/4 inch difference

I used the 2 MM isolators on each rear spring. Its even and the bottom spring tips both point to drivers side. You didnt leave out an isolator did you?

It wont really make it harsher. But it MIGHT give you some extra noise.

I took out the isolators on my 95 and didn't hear anything and it wasn't harsh.
