Default this ever happened to anyone??

at the track couple nights ago and while i was in the burnout box heard a very nothing to worry about "clunk" after washing it the next day i relized that the right rear was sitting lower. so i parked it on level concrete and measured. its sitting close to a half inch lower than the rest of my car. not really a problem cause i've been waiting for an excuse to by new shocks/srings. any opinions to what happened.

I swear the same thing happened to me! Mine sat even until I took it to the track. Now it has the "normal" 1/2" difference on each side that every other f-body has. I have Eibach Pro Kit and new Bilstein HD shocks as well with 1500 miles on them.

No idea...

I bet your spring moved under some slight wheel hop.

Look at the lower spring seat on either side. Is the "pigtail" of the spring facing in the same direction?

I always point my rearward, for no good reason other than I just did it that way and remember to do it that way.
