Default Low ride height on one corner..Fixed!

I recently installed some lowering springs and was wondering why my right rear sat a little lower than the rest (about a 1/4 inch). People thought I had the prokit because it looked like that one corner sagged.

The other day I removed the spare tire and jack and now have a perfect ride height of 26.75 inches on all four corners! All the extra weight must have made it sit a little lower.

I would swap those rear springs side to side and put the parts back in.

This car isn't my daily driver so I'm not too worried about the spare tire.

Now when you get in it, the left side will sag rather than evening everything out

It only one corner. My car does not sit higher on one side like some do.
