    Question Uneven suspension in EK

    hey guys i'm currently changing my springs in my ek and before i changed them my suspension was quite un,even.

    not really sure if this is a common problem but anyway. put some lower springs in. havent done all 4 corners yet but it appears it is still a bit uneven - 3 fingers gap in rear left as opposed to rear right which is 2ish fingers gap.

    i originally thought it was the old springs i had on before but now i'm a bit stumped.
    anyway. i'll finish all 4 corners by the weekend and see if it's still uneven but in the mean time,
    anyone got any ideas??

    thanks in advance

    it could be few things, for one, a bent control arm, worn out bushes.... But before coming to any real conclusion, put in the lowered springs, than drive the car on a flat surface an than check again to see if the problem is still there

    could be the area you park in might not be that flat.

    shockers maybe dead, which can leave to uneveness, get that checked out, check all the bushes, check the control arms, all the control links and thats bout what i can think of atm

    hmm i'm no pro but on inspection they look fine. no leaks, they dont bounce around excessively or anything..
    like you said. i think i'll take them to get checked out
