ho-k,

my car is lower on one side than the other, its on -60 gmax and shocks.
ive put new ARB drop links on as i thought t could be them..but nooo.

i have -40 springs in the post but wondered what is causing it?
could it be shocks? springs? or something i have done in fitting them during taking springs off shock etc. can someone run by the fitting process of new spring plz so i know its nothing i have done!!??

thanks, alex
