HELP!! Front Suspension F"ed Up
Can somebody tell me why my front passenger side is sitting 2 inches higher than my drivers side. It looks like something is bent? My tire is worn out on the inside tread. Would my lower or upper CA be bent? Thanks

spring is fine. Looked at it. Wondering if it is upper A Arm since the inner tire is worn. Any other ideas are greatly appreciated

Civic's are like that. Mine was, so is every civic that I see with stock suspension.
Solution: Adjustable Coilovers.

just pull the wheels off an compare... was the car in an accident before... it might not be straight... but pull the wheels off and see if you can see anything... i know sometimes i have seen broken springs be the cause of something like this... anyways good luck with you problem.

Re: HELP!! Front Suspension F"ed Up (crXBoy69)
sounds like upper Control arms because of the extreme camber issues your having. But everybody is right. Should be something more than obvious if you pop the wheel off. I got some extra stock UCA's with good balljoints if you want em. They're for ek's tho i don't know if they'll fit. just pm me if you want em. Sorry to market on your thread. MikE D.

I put coilovers in the back this weekend. I'm doing the fronts tonight. I'll see if that fixes it. If not I'm going to the junkyard to get upper a-arm.

Yeah I really think something is bent. I guess you have to love potholes.. Would you think it is the Upper A-Arm or would it be the Hub/Knuckle arm? That would make it wear out on the inside. Or would a bushing be bad? Thanks for the responses
