Default Eibach Sportline springs

I just put the Eibach sportline springs on my car and a couple of days later I had noticed that the right side on the rear was leaning lower than the left side. Has any body else had this problem before if so how did you fix it? Thanks

well just think of the passenger side alone you have the jack and spare, battery and AC. so I think they put all that on that side and then when you have the driver in there it all balances out????

probably looks uneven when no ones in it and sits level with a driver in there.

I have the sportlines and I didn't notice any noticable height differences.

The reason that side is lower is, either there is a little more weight on that side (noticed this with my battery in the rear), or the spring on that side is slightly softer than the others (don't over look that).

You could swap the rear springs (left on right, right on left) and see if it stays the same. If the lean moves to the other side, then you know its a soft spring and can try getting it replaced.

If swaping does not change anything, go to a off road store and get a small spring spacer (from a Jeep or something) and put under the spring on the rear end (this will space the car up even).

Make sure the spring is located in the upper isolator correctly. I had this problem intially with my sportlines and discovered that the isolator was not properly positioned on top of the spring.
