Car is not Level

[Eric]

I noticed that my car sits a little under a 1/2 inch higher on the right side than the left. I measured in the garage and in the driveway to confirm. Anything ideas of things I can check myself before taking it in?

That's not unusual Eric!! There's a hight adjustment on it!! I adjust the ride height before I align one up!!

Nope, I wish it were that easy.

So junk, where is this ride height adjustment. And what is stock supposed to be?

Thanks,

Quit SuperSizing everything, Eric!

Have you put on some extra (oh, 200# or so) weight since CF '05???

there are bolts on the control arms that contact the springs in the front you have to jack up the car and then put a jack on the spring to relieve the pressure before adjusting it.
do a search for lowering a C5, there is a post with pictures somewhere.
Don't know what stock is mine was on the ground when I got it and I raised it up enough so I can get the arms of my lift under it but it is still a lbit lower then stock.

Heheh, I think I may have lost a few.

Thanks Craig! Just one more thing to do before CruiseFest!
