While my car was on the lift at the chassis shop, we noticed that the passenger rear spring is shorter than the driver-side rear spring. In fact it fell out of its perch. Me thinks that something ain't right. I measured the rear fender to the floor on both sides and the car sits level, even though the coils are clearly different lengths. Hmmm.

I just installed the HR Parts rear bar and let all the air out of the bags. Now my rear fender lip sits about 3/8 from the tire and the front fenders are a good 3" above the top of the tires. The rear is a bit too low without the air bags.

Probably time for some new rear springs? If so, any recommendations? Street/strip, no front sway bar.
 
That's what a buddy said also. But he thought the longer spring should go on the passenger side. My passenger-side has the shorter spring. Unless it's designed with a heavier rate and shorter height, which is possible I guess.
 
Yes it would go on the passenger side, but that doesn't mean someone didn't install them wrong
