Ground Controls.... not too happy...

i got my springs in mid-December.... and they were all cool and shit.... but one thing that has been on my mind for a couple of weeks is ont he drivers side.... i have the rear coils all the way down on the drivers side.... but i can still stick 3 fingers in the wheel well... as where the passenger side, i lower the coils all the way, and i tucks the back tires just how its supposed to...so to have it at an even height with the drivers side (the side i can stick 3 fingers in) i have to raise the passenger side about 3/4 all the way up...

the same concept for the front also... i have one all the way down and the passenger side about 1/4 way from reching the top on the sleeve.... and this is really aggrevating cus the rear i can tuck the drivers side...

and like the first few weeks i had them, they were fine and compltely normal....


now i do believe Ground-Control has a limited lifetime warranty on lagging springs, am i right???

ive been thivking about calling them, and see if they will bring me out some new ones or somethin, cus i aint very happy with them right now at all... they handle great, but they are at different heights and i can lower the rear any more than what it is, which is a 3 finger gap in there....

anyone help me on what i should do?

it's a possibility that you could have a spring that is made for the back on the front or vice versa. Start there and see if that's the problem.

the car has never been in a collision.... or at least everything came out clean....


as for struts.... im thinking that is the problem.... cus i didnt have this problem about a month ago... and it is only on the drivers side, hence where my weight is, so im guessing my shocks blew out and did some freaky weird shit to fuck up the level of my car...

any good places to buy struts off of? i was thinkin agx or tokico blues...

i also heard about putting washers in the rear to help the camber...how many do i need?

Good possibility that the shocks are blown. As for the washers, i heard u can use 1 washer for every inch dropped.(Ex: 4 inch drop....4 washers)
