Installed Eibach Sportlines, passanger side sits 1 inch higher than drivers side.

Like the title says, I noticed it looked wierd. When I measured it the passanger side sits an inch higher. I looked under it and the spring seems to be in the proper spot. Only thing I can think of is, I lost the upper strut bushing and havent put a new one in yet, but would that affect height at all? Front and back are both 1 inch higher.

Spring perch bushings will affect height. The polyurethane spring perch bushings will cause the car to ride higher than worn out rubber bushings as well... As far as the upper strut bushing, you should get that replaced ASAP. That will probably cause your caster and camber to drift horribly... If the bushing is missing, your camber could be off on the passengers' side, causing the car to look lower than it really is... But then again, I'm no expert...

Whats the spring perch bushings? Is that what goes on top of the spring? I didn't replace them. I'm not driving the car until I get some caster camber plates, its just sitting in my carport. The passanger side is the side missing the strut bushing, and its the side that sits higher.
