I recently put new springs and shocks on my car but on the rear the right side is like an inch or 2 higher than the right side. any ideas? i'm planning on lca relocation brackets and new lca's, will that fix my problem?

Re: uneven rear end
These cars are going to sit a little lower on the passenger side. Supposedly it's to offset the weight of the driver. It's even more noticeable on a worn stock suspension or new suspension. Now a normal difference is going to be between a 1/4-1/2", maybe even 3/4" in some. But anything over an inch is going to be something else.
If it's more than an inch, try getting more exact measurements and posting them up.'99 Camaro

Re: uneven rear end
Take some pictures with your car on even pavement. It's sitting on grass and looks like there might be a bit of a downhill slope on the driver's side. I had a guy install my rear shocks/springs and when I first saw it I couldn't fit but one finger between the tire and body on one side and my whole hand on the other. Moved it to some even ground and it sat fairly level.'99 Camaro

Re: uneven rear end
Im gunna guess the perch as well on one side...make sure you got a perch on both sides...Did you get two different size springs? (sounds dumb yes, but hey, you ever get two right shoes in a shoe box? They mess up parts sometimes, so you never know)
Thats what comes to my mind first. Do you have any other aftermarket suspension mods?
