    Hey guise....

    I have a question for the higher consciousness that is r3v.

    I recently lowered my car but it doesn't sit quite right due to, and I'm guessing here, destroyed rear shock mounts. Even before installing my suspension the car always sat sideways when viewed from the back, with the passenger side sitting a little higher.

    After the new suspension went in, I had to "compensate" for this anomaly by lowering my rear right a lot more than my rear left.

    So my question is, can failed shock mounts cause that big of a problem and what would be a good replacement part. (aluminum, heavy duty rubber, oem...)

    This car is a daily driver with occasional track use so I don't need anything super crazy.

        based on the missing parts i'd say being lopsided suits you.

                      For rear shock mounts I'd go e46. Or whatever is cheap and not ebay.

                        So, when you lowered the rear, you didn't notice if your mounts were blown out? Plus, your springs set the ride height, shocks do not..

                              I installed new rear shock mounts from Turner today and it still has the same problem. The subframe bushings make sense because they are situated vertically but would the RTAB's make the car lean so that the drivers side is lower?
