March 27, 20224 yr #1 Just finished installing new struts ....strut tops ...ball joints....lower co trol arm Bush's (nolthane) in a ba xr6t Lowers car from jack and it seem that passenger side is way higher (guard to tyre) Like at lease an inch higher. Can clearly see alighnemnt is out aswell but expected with all work done I did alighn strut tops correctly so I'm at a los what I've done U Less drivers factory spring is higher and I've acidently put that one on that side? 😔 What have I done wrong haha? Or should I wait and see what alighnemnt guy says tommorow?
March 27, 20224 yr #2 probably best to see what the alignment guy says... did you ask them about that sort of thing when you booked the appointment for the alignment?
March 27, 20224 yr #3 Author Nah didn't ask as booked it last week and did job yesterday haha. Will find out soon. It drives fine...actually very good. Clearly alighnments out as car see that Mite change springs out in a month or so. What's the factory type xr height in a king spring I wonder...I did send king a message so will wait and see
March 27, 20224 yr #4 either way, how'd you go doing the bushes and the ball joints yourself? did you have access to a press?
March 28, 20224 yr #5 Author All alighned etc. Guy said all seemed good. Was way out had to shim the upper arm on driver's side otherwise said nothing looked out of ordinary. I've done the ball joints Bush's etc heaps times in past on these cars but yes I have a small 6ton press. Hardest part was cutting factory bush shells out of old arm
