Rear suspension problems

(1/4) > >>

steviet:
Any help appreciated
Problem with rear suspension sitting lower at one side
Recently replaced both springs
Car still sitting down lower on one
No self levelling suspension
It is quite noticeable as car taken for 4 wheel check and garage said they could not carry this out due to the difference in ride height at NSR and OSR

Nick W:
Have you checked the condition of the subframe mounts?


That's the donuts at the end of each sill(under the triangular plate) and the diff mounts at the back of the diff. Those are the second place to look once you've rechecked the springs

TheBoy:
Also check the shocks, as these can affect ride height.

biggriffin:
You did put the rubber pads back, after changing the springs.

johnnydog:
I bought a pair of Suplex rear springs from an auto factors a couple of years ago. Although identically labelled and marked, when placed side by side, one was about an inch shorter than the other. I returned them and got a matching pair which I fitted.
Probably a bit difficult to check this now as the new springs have been fitted, but worth considering if all other checks fail to find the cause.
