Alot of Mustangs sit unlevel because of Fords lousy production tolerances...Im not saying your car is this way but alot of them are...My 03 always looked like the front was about a 1/2 inch higher on the passenger side until I got coilovers. It always bugged the hell out of me too...Its fixed now though What springs did u go with BTW?

Did you install the springs where the pigtail is facing the drivers side? if not, that could be why the spring is higher on that side.

my prokit sags on the drivers side as well. Ive adjusted the springs 3 different times to correct it and the closest i can get them is the drivers side only sagging about a half inch. This is only dealing with the rear springs though. im out of ideas to correct it.. but was maybe thinkin about putting an isolator under the drivers side rear spring?

and I also, at first, had both rear springs' pigtails facing the drivers side
