one side lower in rear

I had my springs installed 1 month ago. I noticed that one side in the rear is lower a little. what would cause that? I'm wondering if a shop I brought the car to for something else beat on it.

I had the same problem when i had my Is300, i was lowered with Hotchkis springs, & after i had my trd sway bar installed the right side was even more lower, speaking of G, i remember talking to few members about this problem @ the Lokey meet.& i believe it's more noticiable with S-tech with oem shocks.

Well, progressive springs are known to do that sometimes. I had the same problem in my old '03 in which the front right was lower about 0.25". I was about to change them out when I had an accident and got my new '05. The prokit in my '05 sits perfectly even on all 4 corners. I remember talking to Eibach and they said for them to exchange it, the springs had to installed by a licensed mechanic (which they were) and the drop had to be more than 0.50" difference in either corner.

I had a 1" difference between my right and left rear. Took it back to the dealer and it was only .25". So I said "forget it" because it wasn't worth taking it apart for .25 inches. Brought it home and it's .75" out. WTF???
