Uneven swift drop?

Just got done putting swifts on in the rear, driver side seems to be a tad bit higher up than passenger side. Normal? I know it might settle but if it settles on both side wont it still be uneven

when you installed the springs did you make sure to seat them in the grooves correctly? If they aren't that's you're problem. That can make a 1/4 difference or so.

make sure the pavement you're on is even and the parking brake is off. both can make a small difference

:iagree: orientation of spring is also very important.

Hey David. They're like scooters. Fun to ride but you don't wanna be seen with them.

The springs needs to settle for a few miles down the road before you get the full efficiency of the springs. You need to have your Z aligned again after that if you like. But it does looks good now.
