Put the higher side on the passengers. In couple months they will settle and be unnoticeable

thanks all for your replies

I did change the coils to the driver side and the issue moved to driver side.

Andrew Perle from EVO MFG replied if switched left to right and have the opposite height and said it is interesting.

he asked if i did check the springs and were same length and update him.

I did it yesterday and found rear springs not having the same length.

front were having same length.

replied to him and waiting now.

I prefer waiting for EVO reply and confirmation because i am not in hurry .. still hot for desert offroading here and we are testing different springs with fox 2.5 adj bypass shocks and waiting for the release of king 2.5 bypass for JK which will be in less than 1 month to announce the best setup for members in JK Club.

Can you get a measuring tape out and take a pic of the difference? Have you called EVO and asked?

I'm thinking of the 4 inch plush EVO coils but not if this is an issue.

Evo does not have designated driver or passenger coils, they are the same coil for the front.
But they do make 3" or 4" coils.

Since iv owned them. Dont know why either but the weight of the fuel tank isnt helping.
lets wait for the reply from EVO .. maybe there is issue with rear springs ..
front both are same but rear are not.

they sent those pics to me from workshop .. it wasn't me lol

when asked to get the measurement they were already replaced with the teraflex springs after a test drive with EVO.

So normal. I can measure the coils and come within 1/8. Measure the body 1/2 or lower on the passenger side.
