I was looking at my car the other day and it didn't look level right to left. Once I got the car on my shop floor I measured it, on the left side at the center of the wheel wells it measures 26" front and rear, on the right side it measures 25" front and rear. All of the springs are seated in the pockets and the suspension is not bound, could it be a bad spring? The car has stock front suspension and SSM lowers, boxed stock uppers and a stock sway bar on the rear. Thanks for the help

Worn / shot body bushings were my problem my car sat a little higher on one side than the other it now sits straight. springs could also be the culprit try measuring them to see and also shocks could cause some problems.

Are the springs properly indexed in their seats? ie pigtail of spring between the two drain holes of your a-arms?
