Default spring problem!!!

ok so i got h&r race springs that i just threw on my car last week on the stock shocks obviously the shocks blew which i knew but i had no money for shocks so whatever i dont care about riding with blown shocks for a few weeks but a couple days ago i noticed that the driverside is lower than the passenger side in the front it is noticeably lower than the other wtf and ive done spring installations before and never had this happen what could it be?

thats just the blown shocks leaning t theres no way to fix it unless you get new shocks, and you might have rewend the springs because they probly got compressed too much.

shocks have nothing to do with ride height

you wanna bet? so if you have a blown shock, and there fore the car weight is leanring completely on one spring its not going to compress it down to where one side leans?

wow come to think of it your right because when i first installed the springs the height was even but now i guess in the front one shock is leaking and the one thats lower is completely blown... how does that sound? thanks bro

Do what im gonna do and hock the springs and buy some Coilovers. If you really want to stiffen up/make the sus more responsive thats the way to go. Some new sways and upper/lower braces woudn't hurt either, just depends how far you want to go.
