I was on a drive with some other folks on Sunday (don't worry; we all kept 6 feet apart) and the guy behind me tells me that when I turn hard right the car leans more than when I turn hard left. Looks like the springs/shocks/suspension needs some attention. Where do I begin?
I have never replaced or adjusted any of the suspension on this car. For replacement parts (if I need them), what are good shocks and springs and where is a good place to get them? I'm not looking for anything fancy; the "stock" ride is fine. Are there any techniques or fancy tools I should know about? Thanks! |

I believed the basic height is to follow the side body line aligned to the center wheel. But most now they want the front lower than the center wheel. Sorry my white marker line is not perfect.
