uneven ride hieght.....anyone else have this problem?
my front wheel gap is even, but my rear gap is NOT
the right side is about 1/4 inch lower....i took out my coilovers and raised both sides up about 4 coils... (1/4 inch) both exactly the same number of coils......but again my right rear fender gives less gap....i hope my body is true on both sides.....im thinking maybe the coilovers are sinking into the cup of the shock cuz they were jammed in there when i took them out, i had to pry them out....
any suggestions?

96 Ex with Ground Controls did the same thing. Beats me as to why. I just adjusted the side that was screwed up more to even it out. Quite a pain in the ***.

Every honda I've owned has done that.
My friends GSR does it too, I just noticed it last night.

usually the weight distribution on the car, causes certain areas to "sink" faster than others...it's just the spring slowly compression, or compression into a mount...Have you ever seen old white trash cars that look like they're driving on a slanted road??? Just compensate and adjust whatever corner need be until it's level!

My brother's skunk 2s with tokico blues did that. He took it out and reinstalled it and the problem was fixed. Still can't figure out why it did it.
