Rear Spring Issues Pt 2 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

32valvZ · 08-09-2009

Ok, I replaced my rear spring with a 12,000 mile unit. I love the increase pressure from the 39.9 N/mm spring and poly bushings.

What I dont understand is why the car is still a 1/2" lower on the driver side. I set the original bolts with the castle nuts lined up with the cotter pin holes just like factory.

So what gives here. The replacement spring looks to be in excellent condition and was much firmer when installing than the original. I could even see the arc of the spring was greater than the one I took out.
