i really need help figuring out y my tein lowering springs are sitting higher on the passenger side rear ive had it looked at by custom shops dealerships and im in automotive tech and had my teacher look at them and he told me the only reason he could think of (since sometimes the drop actually does become even) that my springs are twisting around as i drive my tc. anyone else have any suggestions on what to do to fix it???

 

how long have you hadthem on? maybe wait for it to settle..

 

one is it takes a week for suspension to settle, if you got your alignment right away, you wasted your money.

there isn't anything wrong with your suspension, just the driver side settles faster because you weigh that side down because that is where you sit everytime you drive, if you had a passenger with you too, the passenger side would settle at the same pace. if you want to hurry the process along, put some weight on the passenger side of the car.

 

yeah mines took a good month before they evend out

 

ive had them on for 3 or 4 months now

 

ouch!!! yeah dunno sir, i would teke em out and install them again.

 

^^Agreed. Check that the spring is seated properly in the upper mount at the top and on the shock perch at the bottom. Compare it to the other side if you're not sure what to look for.

This has happened to others.

 

authentic tein springs are cut on the passenger side to compensate for driver weight, you probably have the springs backwards front left to right

 

i have the same problems with my trd's. the passenger side sits alot higher than the drivers side and ive had mine on for 5 months. Should i take it back to the shop and complain? this isnt uncommon cuz ive heard other ppl complain of this problem.

 

u know they sell fake tein springs on ebay right. maybe u got one of those. only get them from shop u know go direct with tein like my company

 

no my problem is fixed i put weight in the rear passenger side and put a jack in the front driver side to put some weight down on the passenger side rear tire and fixed my problem cuz the tranny and the gas and me are all on the driver side so it just didnt settle even its fixed n if u want to know how to fix some of the problems thats a good way to start but u have to leave it like that for a whole day for it to work

 

good work!! congrats

 

I bet the springs just arent sitting in their seat properly... take them back to where you got them installed and have them fix it.... i just put my s-techs on a week ago, springs sitting the way they should be because i did it myself with my friends dad who owns his own shop. their are no problems with my springs, they sit even, no creaking noises, no nothing... also, make sure you cut your bump stops to even height...
