Went to a local race shop that specializes in imports but mainly Porsches (my 1st mistake) to have all the LCA bushings replaced by ES poly ones which I provided.

Picked up the car this morning and drove away. Felt good up until I went to make a quick left hander and the car felt pretty weird. I pull in my driveway and walk around the car. The rear right (passenger) side is lowered about 3/4-1" more than what it used to be! Too low..

The tire is tucked into the fender well when before I could fit my finger in between the tire and the fender. All the other sides looked fine and just like before. Can't figure out how they could 've screwed up such a simple bolt-on.

I mean all they had to do is disconnect the end-link from the LCA and then take out the bolt that holds the shock over the LCA. Could the end-link have moved up after they disconnected it? So when they went to put the LCA back the end-link was higher maybe because the sway bar was loose, so the LCA ended up higher, making the car go lower to the ground? What could they have done wrong that my car would be almost an 1" lower? Should they have loosened the shock at the upper mount, tighten the bottom (on the shock) first, and then tighten the shock tower nuts?
Was there a process they didn't follow? What could they have missed or not done that would lower my car so much on 1 side? I 'm going back tomorrow to to have them check it but I don't trust these guys anymore. I need advice, thanks!!

I don't know what happened.

I installed the 8096 (rear shock mount) bushings today.
When i got done one side was higher than the other.
I blame it on the bushings. I can't see any other reason for this to happen.
I loosened the bolt on the rear crossmember and removed the other two.

 

what kind of springs/shock combo you have?
the spring could be not seated all the way. just drive around to see if it goes back to normal.
i dont see how the bushing should be a problem

 

thanks, I figured it out. "Problem" is fixed. Basically they had installed the front left fork on the wrong perch of my AD shock, which raised the car up. By them raising the front left side, they inadvertently lowered the rear right without knowing it.
