BC racing coilover adjustments.

I just recently installed these coilovers on my G, Just wondering if it is normal for the rears to have a 1/2 inch diffrence in height?

My passenger side is set almost all the way down and the driver side i had to raise it almost all the way up to make both sides even.

I had the same problem with my BC's. This problem was also an issue when I had h-tech springs. Must be the weighting of the car or a slight height difference in mounting position of the coils in the rear. What I did was removed one of the gold locking rings from the passenger side to give me that little bit more drop, which made both sides even

Now I feel better(Kinda), I had the same problem. Im still considering buying the Shorter rear springs for the BC's to make it even lower. I have a 1 finger gap back there now.

Well mines can go pretty low, its just that height differnce from driver side to passenger side is off by a 1/2 inch.

So lets say to make both sides even, if i set the passenger side all the way down (no threads left), i'd still have 1/2 inch of thread left on the driver side.

My driver's side is as low as it can go with both gold locking rings in place, and my passengers side has about 1/8th inch of thread left with only one gold locking ring and I'm sitting evenly now. I don't have any gap between the fender and the wheel, and in fact the tire is slightly tucked under the fender.

yup this is to be expected that's how the bc's are. If you want to go lower in the rear either take off the smallest ring or get shorter springs, 180mm instead of the 200mm
