ok...so it happened last night when i was painting my calipers
i jacked up the left side of teh car (only have two jack stands)
when i finished one side of teh car (looks really good) i wanted to take the car off the jack stands
so i did...one at a time (i think i should have jacked the middle of teh car and taken off both at once
but heres what happend
the rear drivers side seemed a bit higher than the rear passenger side
and it was (by 1/2 inch)
so i got scared and didnt do teh other side of teh car
now i have to buy another g2 kit to paint teh other side (i dont really mind
but can anyone tell me why the car might be higher (is it cause the spring gets streched a bit when its raised?)
if i drive around a bit will my problem be solved?/
(in teh beginning it was an inch higher..then when i cheked this morning it was only half inch higher)
so i think the spring just needs to be worked in a bit...or maybe it will just be balanced out if i lift the passenger side of the car
should i be scared about this??
