Believe it or not, my car is higher on the drivers side by about 1/2". This is after installing steeda sport springs. Before the springs it was about 3/4" higher on the drivers side. I've been meaning to create a new post about it too because I'd like to get it as level as possible. One thought I had was maybe it's Ford's way to compensate for the weight of the driver. Either way it's not noticeable without measuring. I need to take some more measurements with different fuel loads and with/without someone in the driver's seat.

Maybe in reference to the post above you..

OP states he has the issue on the passenger side, which would only exaggerate the problem with a driver sitting in the car.
