Hi everyone,
        I think iv\'e got a bit of a problem with the suspension on my 98 FD.
        Iv\'e noticed that its 15-20mm lower front and back on the offside compared to the nearside. Just had a look and it appears to me that where the spring mounts on the damper it\'s sitting at an awkward angle.Could it be the dampers have been fitted round the wrong way as one side the coil starts from the rear of the car and on the other side it starts from the front ?...
       Anyone had a similar problem or got any ideas.....cheers.
   Standard suspension fitted by the way....

STEEVE....

i had this on mine but if (can never work out which near & off refers to http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/29/29_3_6.gif\' border=0>) you mean passenger side is lower than drivers isn\'t this just to allow for weight of driver when sat in it? This is what i was told although even with me in (maybe i\'m just too slender http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008\' target=\'_blank\'>http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/15/15_8_6.gif\' border=0> lol ) the passenger side wheel would catch the wing at times which never happened on drivers.......
