suspension question
I just put full drop zone coilovers on my eg and evened the whole car out. But for some reason the passenger side rear has lifted about a half an inch or so higher than everything else. What could this possibly be?

Re: suspension question
few things (though not always obvious) to check:
1. make sure you are on level ground
2. check how many threads from the bottom you are on both rear coils
3. after step 2, make sure everything is tightened down
4. are these coils new or used?
5. You say evened out? the car should not sit even. i would suggest some slight rake.
6. is there anything heavy in the trunk or back seat?

Re: suspension question
They are used but the coilovers are adjusted all the way down. And it just randomly lifeted on the passenger rear, never seen this happen before

Re: suspension question
Something in the suspension probably hadn't settled yet from when you installed them. Readjust the ride height and see if they stay that way. If they're used they should have done any sagging that they were going to do (good springs shouldn't do that at all).
