spc camber kit installed = right side raised??
I installed the spc camber kit today. after the installation, the rear passenger side is about half and inch higher than the rear driver side. does anyone know what it could be? I'm going to get it aligned over the weekend.

That's why there's a left and right for some springs. I would've thought they designed our cars balanced left to right but one side is heavier than the other.

it's not because of sag or weight. it's just the way the unibody and suspension are put together.

Yep, TL's sit like that, too. I'm not the least bit pleased by it.

ok. i drove the car around today, and the drop seems even. then the driver side has a pretty bad negative camber ware. adjusted it and now they both seem even. still need to get it aligned just incase.
