End of last summer put new stock Monroe shocks on my 1970 Roadrunner. I just finished this week installing new leaf springs (Mopar Brand) along with new factory style U bolts for the rear end, new bushings in leaf springs and new hardware. Has the factory style rear leaf spring shackle brackets attached to the frame. Car was set at the lowest of the 3 settings for rear shackle mounting and I now set it to the factory bottom hole on the rear frame shackle bracket so car will sit highest possible. Well I was really happy when putting car back on ground because back of car sits higher so less bottom out possibilities. Last night, hours after installation I noticed the passenger side sits slightly lower than the drivers side. Everyone I showed the car sitting in garage said to me, "HEY passenger side sitting slightly lower." I took everything off, double checked everything and put back on today but still passenger side sits a small amount lower, very noticeable. I pulled the car out of the garage pulled back in without driving any where and still noticeable passenger side slightly lower. Car sits like 2 heavy people are sitting inside the car on passenger side. I did not notice any difference with the factory springs on there but was set at lowest setting and car was too close to ground. Praying this doesn't mean frame problem?
ANY IDEAS?
I have read sometimes leaf springs need to settle but should not be this noticeable different?
Please help with ideas?
Thanks
