C5Z, Ride Height Bolt Not Raising High Enough
Hi folks, got a bit of a head scratcher here.
I wanted to raise my LF ride height a tad because it's the lowest out of all corners for some reason. When the bolt is maxed out, it won't go as high as the RF ride height. The bolt turns just fine and from the looks of it, I may have after market bolts because I see a white puck underneath it(delrin?). I used the J and K trim points to measure the height.
Currently have T1 springs and sways with DRM shocks. Trying to figure this out in case something is binding or could lead to bigger issues in the future.
Thanks.

disconnect sway bar? Is it stripped...ie can you physically see that it is moving higher? You can always shim under the support with a piece of aluminum/plastic.
Remember when you raise the LF, you are jacking weight into the RR. You may need to lower the RR to allow the LF to come up. Think of a restaurant table with uneven legs.
I just re-leveled my car this week. It's as perfect as it can be. Somehow it was scaled perfectly, but one side was lower than the other. It all works together, you can't just start jacking around a single corner.
