i have a problem. a buddy with a 92-95 honda civic cant figure out why his car leans to one side. it has brand new struts all the way around as well as brand new eibach lowering springs. he has about a 1/2 inch gap on one side of the car front and rear and about 1 inch gap front to rear on the opposite side. any ideas?? has brand new bushing all the way around also. i cant figure it out neither can he so just looking for suggestions. thanks

Do you have both fronts on one side and the rears on the other side. This would cause the problem. There are seperate springs for the front and rear.

I know rangers get it from the gas tank, driver, and battery all being on the same side. Perhaps he has a weight distribution problem.

did you measure before you lowered the car, the lean may hve already been there but you just didnt notice it because the wheel well gaps were bigger. a lot of vechicles lean from the factory.
