Before anybody says anything, I have used search multiple times, and cannot find anything.

I installed Roush REAR lowering springs on my mustang months ago. Since I hardly ever drive the car, i didnt notice that the passenger side hasnt lowered ANY. I took out my mearsuing tape yesterday, and the driver side is 3/4" lower then the passenger side. 3/4" is the total amout the loweirng springs are suppose to drop the car.

So, what did I do wrong? Is it possible that I put the spring in wrong? Anything I can check? Thanks in advance for your help guys.

Hopefully this thread will help! Did you do anything different than these instructions?

I know in some cases, there are alignment issues when you lower s197s, but I am not sure if they deal more with height or with something like 'horizontal symmetry'. The only other thing I can think of, and I don't even know if this is possible fitment wise, but maybe the spring is upside down.

(I don't know much about suspensions, so these are just wild guesses)

You might not have seated the spring in the proper orientation.

Pardon my ignornace, but how do I check if the spring infact is seated properly?

took the damn thing apart today. the spring was in there properly and the orientation look proper too. How is the spring suppose to be in there? What else could it possibly be?

Leave the panhard bar disconnected and set car on ground
and bounce the back end a few times, check for level.
Binding panhard could hold passenger side high.
Do you have an adjustable panhard bar to recenter your
rear axle after lowering.
Only other thing would be a binding LCA.
