front coilover heights confusing me..

[whileoceanasleeps]

hey all, got a question for you. I've just dropped my front joms by exactly 10mm each side, and now the amount of thread beneath the springs is exactly the same, 60mm. however the heights from floor to wheelarches are different, one side is around 15-20mm higher and I can't work out why. I could drop one coilover toatch the height but thought I'd ask on here incase I've done something wrong. can't see why the heights would differ when the measurements are exact!? cheers guys

Are you parked on a very level surface?

get new ones

it's the gap between the wheel and the arch that's different, am on level ground anyway.

got new febi ones about a month ago, any ideas?

Your chassis is probably twisted...................

did you get the tracking/camber set when the coilies were fitted?? i noticed something similar on mine and the camber was out so set that and it leveled itself out

I haven't done tracking yet so this could be it... however if I get the alignment sorted and it doesn't fix it I'm gonna have to adjust the height and then realign aren't I?
