Ok, so I just finished installing a set of DJM LCA's and they bolted up just fine. Didn't measure the height before installation so not sure if this was a problem before the install or not. I rebuilt the entire front suspension last year. It's a lot more noticeable with the reduced wheel well gap.

So my question is this, is there anything other than the torsions not being tightened to the same bolt length that could cause this offset. The passenger side is 3/4 of an inch lower. I marked the torsions and lined them back up when I reinstalled. Got the bolt lengths as close to where they were I believe. Isn't easy laying on your back and using a tape measure.

Thanks in advance for the help.

 

One other note. When I hang a plum bob down from the fender, the drivers side wheel sticks out further than the passenger side. It was like this before the lca install and is still there after. Any ideas what is causing this.

 

lit is right on the torsion adjustment... from my experience, the drivers side torsion is usually weaker than the pass side. either way, adjust them accordingly. as for the wheel sticking out more, check it after the height adjustment. if its still sticking out some, it may also be a camber issue where it has more or less on one side than the other.

 

Ok I'll work on adjusting them. I also rechecked my manual I realized I wasn't supposed to tighten the main lca bolt til it was on the ground.

Yea I was wondering if the wheel sticking out was a possible alignment product. Wonder if when I rebuilt the entire front end and had it aligned if that caused it. Guess I'll have to have a shop check that.

 

oh yea... no no on tightening the lca bolt while up in the air.... its gotta be on the ground. another fyi tip for lower ride height gain, loosen the uca bolts as well to ease the bushing bind while up in the air and retighten them when on the ground.
