  • Height difference

    hi,

    I have a question about my 2001 Camaro
    I meassured the height on the left and right of my car (front and rear), and have a little bit of difference, about 1/4 of a inch (6mm).

    the car has run 23.000 miles, tires are new (pressure is the same), and replaced the original shocks about 2 years ago with Koni's.

    Is this normal ?

        most of these vehicles are lower on the passenger side. some say you can turn the springs and it will help even it out some.

              Your car is going on 10 years old, and it would not be surprising if the rubber bushings at the top of the rear springs have started to dry rot, letting one side droop a bit. Put the car up on jack stands, support the rear at the differential with a floor jack, disconnect the shocks, and let the rear down until the springs come out. Then you can inspect the bushing, and shim it if its still good to level the car.
