Default front height uneven

will bolting on the front sway bar endlinks with one side jacked up cause uneven ride height? I think I will go back and reinstall the end links with the car sitting level. right now the side that was jacked up is sitting about 1/2" higher.

Links should always be tightened with the car on the suspension (say on ramps...).

Yes, it can mess with the height a little.

thanks Sam. I'll get it on 4 ramps and loosen and retighten the endlinks.

The Konis are awesome! I have the 4/3's on my stock 1LE springs. It sits a little high for my taste, after being at DMS ride height, but the ride/handling is great. almost exactly 1" higher then the DMS ride height. both have/had the hose mod and the fronts are now on the lower perch.

Just wait until my springs get there.

I'm glad you like your Koni's, well worth it--don't you think?

very much worth it.
anyone on the fence about Konis ought to go ahead and get them while they are discounted. the discounted swaybars are tempting.......
