Skunk2 Pro-C Coilovers
 
Just purchased and installed a new set of PRO-C's.

Set the rear ride hight and pre-load the exact same for both the right and left side of the car. After putting the car back down on all 4 tires and leaving over night, I find the next day that the vehicle has settled 1/4 of an inch more on the drivers side than the passengers side.

My question is towards the design of the vehicle. To get the proper cross weight, did Toyota/Subaru adjust the suspension geometry to compensate for the driver? meaning I need to actually add more ride hight to the Drivers side and increase the preload?

The front's came out perfectly and did not settle at all. exact same length fender to floor.

I just dont understand how I could have a 1/4" difference with both coilovers in the rear having equal configurations.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Well, ruling out any serious issues such as a bent LCA or something of the sort.. Double check your measurements, then check them again, and then one more time. Probably just a simple error during install.

TY,

The car is new. Was looking to get a little lower and have the ability to manipulate dampening.

I will pull her apart again this evening. 8)
