Default H&R springs

I have installed a set of H&R springs about 3 month ago and have notice that my rear passenger side is about a 1/4 in higher that the other side. So I fiqured it in needed to settle (when i first installed). Well it has been 3 months and still its the same. I havent worried about to much cause I rarely drive it (weekend car) but is started to annoy me alittle. Question is before I jack it up and check how the isolaters are sitting will the shock have anything to do with how the level the car is. I am thinking mabe tighten the top of the shock may lower more? that is if it isnt tightened enough? I havent to check to see if the tread is equal on both sides but if it isnt could that be the problem? Any advice will be great! Oh, I got my Mac H o/r pipe today and my 4.10 gears will be here tomorrow!!! ya baby!!!

When you installed the rear springs, did you make sure the pig-tail was pointing the right way? That it, the end of the spring (the part that sits on the control arm) should be pointing toward the tire on that side of the car

In the rear, the end should be pointing to the right side of the car. In the front, the end should be covering the first hole in the lca.

Hmmmm... I had H&Rs on my car for two and a half years and never had any trouble. That sounds like a wierd problem.

Yes, rears go to drivers side. I always get left and right side confused.
