I installed some Stage 1 springs about 4 weeks ago and its seems like the back two springs arent even with one another. The rear passenger side is about a 1/4" higher that the rear driver side. I would assume the springs have had enough time to settle, so what gives? Do you think I have a bad spring or maybe the strut top nut wasnt tightened down enough to compress that spring all the way? Im just extremely OCD about stuff and its driving me crazy. Any help or suggestions is highly appreciated. Oh and I havent gotten it alligned yet, do you think that could be it?

 

Are you sure that you put the fronts in the front and the rears in the rear. Sounds like you mixed the fronts and rear springs up.

 

No I made sure to lay them out according to Front and Rear before I started. Good suggestion though.

 

Maybe the spring isn't sitting correctly in the spring perch I believe there is a correctlocation forthe end of the spring to sit into, Kinda hard to explain but just another idea

 

Yeah I made sure they went in exactly where the stock springs were located. Even had indentions in the perch where the end of the old springs sat. Anyone else?

 

sounds like u put the springs in on the wrong side. i know with my truck and alot of other cars and trucks ive worked on, there labled left and right. they make the drivers side a little bit longer to compesate for the crown on the road so the car drives straight

 

I've never heard of left and right side springs anywhere. Not saying its untrue. All the Mopar springs had labeled on them were "Front" and "Rear". There was no specification for Left or Right. Anyone else heard of this?

 

Bump...

 

yes ive heard of left and right springs on some vehicles and brand of springs.
