Default Suspension ... Help.. Please..

Ok, I recently jacked my car up a couple of times to work on it. The last time I did it, I heard a weird pop noise. I lowered the car and now the pass side sits 1 1/2 inches higher then the drivers side. I took the wheel off and inspected everything. I am not to knowledgable w/ suspension. I thought I may have cracked the spring or something but thats not it. What do I do?? My car is all jacked up. PLease Help ASAP.
Thanks

I'm not a huge problem solver, but have you checked the axle on the passenger side?

If I'm wrong consider this a free bump

Do you have lowering springs, coil-overs or stock springs. Sounds Like the springs are not sitting in their correct seating. Happend to me once on my lowered civic because the springs were shorter than the strut.

It sounds like your coil spring has come out of the groove it's suppossed to sit in. As to what to do either take it to a shop if you aren't comfortable doing it yourself OR get a coil spring compressor and compress the spring and reseat it you may have to remove the assembly from the car to do this .
