Anyway, we have definitely seen our share of "uneven" Subarus in our time including from the factory. The left rear especially can be quite a bit heavier and you can see it in the various corner weights posted over the years, so that makes some sense here.

The full inch difference for the perches is a little more than usual...there may also be something bound up.

It's a pain but swapping the assemblies side to side would be 1 test (seeing if you need to adjust the perches the same way to get the even height).

If you're able, getting the car on some scales would be a good test as well.

Your new lower ride height should make a big difference.

Interesting on the "uneven" issue. I searched for some used examples pulled off cars on marketplace and all the rears look uneven, which supports your statement.

I do know proper corner balancing is the the way, but wanted to get at least a few events under my belt on these (or even a full season) to get a feel for them.

I will have to get the rear realigned. I did a string alignment check yesterday and from the 5/8" lowering my 1/16 toe in is now 1/32 toe out. At least it's even side to side and not wildly out of spec.

Thanks for the help. I will say these ride incredibly well on the street here with our garbage roads in Pittsburgh.
