I have stance full coilovers and I am having a strange issue. On the passenger side I have only about 2" of droop and on the driver side I have about 4".
I believe this is because I had to set the passenger side about an 1.5" lower than the driver side to even it out. That can't be normal???
My rear height from the top of the fender is 26.5 inches on each side.
Stance sent me replacement springs, which I swapped out, but still have the same issue.
Could it be the shocks? Oh also the passenger rear is squeaking badly. I thought the tire was rubbing on the lower coil so I added a 5mm spacer, but I guess that wasn't the issue. It took 2 days after replacing the springs for the squeak to come back and now it's in full force. I don't think it's the end links. Maybe it has something to do with my height issue...
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Setting one side 1.5" different from the other side, no that's not the normal way to try and get things even.
IMO, pull the suspension. Reset every spring preload level to be the minimum required so that the spring will not move, no more no less. Reset all dampner lengths to be even side to side in the front and side to side in the rear. Remeasure and if the height differances bug you enough and you have no intention of corner balanceing, make small changes in a attept go get the height closer.
Is the squeak coming from the rear of the car?

yes, the squeak is coming from the rear. I already removed the rear suspension and reinstalled it with 0 preload when i replaced the springs. I have not changed the damper settings. I left them how they were set from the factory.
thanks
