Add me to the list of Un-Even TRD drop.
My springs were installed by someone who has done plenty of spring installs.(member on this board).
Fronts are a perfect 3 finger gap.(Thats TRD for ya lol)
Rears- Left rear is a solid 2 finger gap.
Right rear is a 3 finger gap.
So the back left is roughly 1 finger lower then the right.
Damn, Im not sure what went wrong....not stressing too much over it. You can barely tell...... Just wanted to share!

throw some weights in the back for a month so it can give it more weight and hopefully lower a few centimeters. i put 2 12" subs with a big heavy box and it acutally worked for me but i have s-techs.
when i had TRD's i got the same issues. bought my tC in nov.05 and got the springs installed by the dealer. (these were back when they were white, btw). it got to the point where up front was a two finger gap, the rear was tuckin tire.
got the springs replaced under warrenty.. with the newer trd red springs.. and i still had the same issue, just not as bad in the rear, wasn't quite tucking but definitly a height difference.

My cars dropped on Hotchkis. I got a little less then a finger on my driver side. and a little more then a finger on my passenger side. I figure it was due to the fact that I'm on the driver side and usually only drive alone. Doesn't really bother me.
I've experienced this too, but I have h-techs. I talked to the service manager ab my local dealership about it and he didn't have an answer and said its the first time he's ever heard of it. He said he did a little research and just came to the conclusion that its kind of hit or miss when it comes to modding anything. Funny thing is, when I lived in California, I distinctly remember thinking to myself that my driver side was sitting lower then the passenger side...this was 2 years before i put the h-techs on! I think its just our cars. No matter what we do to the suspension, there is something wrong w/ the lean. For the last 9 months I've kept my sub on my passenger side to see if this would help correct the problem, so far the results are very minimal if any.

the same thing happened to me with my TRD springs. my rear left was higher than the right, so i just had my 280 lb cousin sit on the left side behind me and went driving around. fixed it perfectly !
.................. i swear this is really what i did
So we're suppose to fit three fingers for front and two for rear? I'm confused.
Cause I'm able to fit perfect two fingers for rear and three for front. I first tried this in front of my house and noticed the car was parked uneven. My driver's side was able to fit three 1/2 while passenger fitted two. Then I tried at McD's parking lot. Got perfect fit for two for rear and three for front.
I have 5k on them..and they seem like they still want to got lower.

lol why the hell do you guys measure with fingers??? use a friggin ruler or something! obviously car A with trd springs and 18s will have less gap than car B with trd springs and 17s. not to mention no two drops are the same!
don't use fingers as measurement, a 300lb fat guy will obviously fit less fingers than a 120lb female when measuring the same car, its common sense!
