MBZ ride height
#1

I never paid any attention to this until today when heading toward my car ( this is the MBZ ) I noticed there was a lot more space between the front wheel and the fender rim, than there was over the rear wheel . So when I got home, parked on level surface in the garage I measured the ride height : Left front 26 1/2 Right front 27 Left rear 25 1/2 Right rear 25 3/4 This car does not have adjustable suspension components , all four tires are exactly the same size, wtf could be causing this and what's the solution ? There is a full size spare tire in the trunk which might explain some of the rear being lower, but uneven on each side, and lower by at least 1" vs the front ?? Also I'm guessing when I sit in the car, in that the left front is already lower than the right by 1/2" the difference between just the fronts themselves will be about 3/4" [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dry.gif[/img]

then i would say things are messed up - coil springs sag - soft suspensions sag faster - the side of the car that gets the most use sags first (driver side)

if the part numbers are the same left to right, have the springs swapped left to right
