G'day fellow demented auszookers

We've just wacked an EFS 50mm Suspension Lift in my Girls 00' model jimny. And now the Arse end on the Left hand side is sitting 30mm Taller than the Right hand side.

Wtf Could cause this???

Yep. I just look at my TD srpings and they have D/S (drivers side) and P/S (passenger side) written on them. Swap them over and see how it goes.

yes, covered that base, definitly seated right, and we've taken it for a few good runs up and down a rough track just incase it just needed to be bedded in a bit better, will try swapping the springs around and see if that fixes it... has anyone else had this problem???

exact same thing happened to me.

swap rear springs. solved.

also make sure the curly, pig til end of the spring is about 1 cm away from the steel bit on the axle, cant really explain it that well sorry. you will know if its wrong, cause every time it flexs you will hear massive, creaking noises.
