Possible fix to a commom problem?
After installing new springs (eibach-pro) about a year ago, I noticed that the passenger side was sitting about 1/2-1'' lower than the driver side. I've read this is a common problem with our cars and figured I would give it some time to see if it seddled out on its own. Well, it's been a year and it's still unlevel. I know it's not the spring or the isolator. After a while of head scratching, I think I have came up with a solution. I've yet to look into it, but would it be possible to find a rubber peice, similar to a round rubber gasket, that is the same diameter as the isolator and glue/attatch it to the top of the isolator. It would probably work best to score each surface before applying a strong glue. Pressure between the two would be constant unless you put the car on a lift, so you shouldn't have to worry about it moving. Thickness would depend on the about needed to make it level to the other side. Personally I wouldn't want to do more than about a 3/4'' peice.
Thoughts/Ideas???

That would be one way to do it. But for me, the drivers side is the correct hight that I want it at. the Passenger side rubs the inner fender on hard cornering. I have also rolled the fenders.
