Ive changed the springs and shocks to king ultra lows and monroe gt sport shocks.
and its still sitting uneven after almost 2 months.
what the hell can i do to fix it!
....should i take it to a suspension specalist?
If you installed them yourself then you must know a lil about suspension, So if your sure everything is the same like all the rubbers are the same, Everything is installed the same, like you put all the bump stops in for example. and not forgotton one.
If you cant see what is causing it, It may be a suspension fault. Just make sure you put everything in the right way.
have you got an adjustabel pan hard bar in??
are your sway bars set at even heights on the link pins? are the link pin bushes flogged out? LHS link pins tend to cop more abuse due to the rougher edge of the road being on the left.
Most roads also lean to the left on the edges for water run off... I know cause last week i almost took a power pole out in my truck due to the lean of that horrible road at newcastle heading from new lambton across to get to merewether!
If anything most cars sit higher on the right to compensate for the weight of the driver.
If it's rear only that's doing it, what's the lower sping seat condition?
The front springs are left and right, if you put them in the wrong sides it will do exactly this.
yeah the fronts out by almost 25mm. so i gather its the front that has been put on back to front. ive only recently bought the car so the previous owner must have ####ed around with it.. if the fronts are definately left and right then ill swap them over and see what happens.
ive only put the springs and shocks in the back the front is still standard.

It's because you've got a ute mate. The fuel tank in a ute sits in the tray to the right hand side hence making the right hand side lower. Same as my VS mate....
The gregorys workshop manual mentions that with the VS utes,the rear right (drivers)side spring is 10 mm longer than the left (passenger) side rear spring..
