lowering?
recently lowered my 94. did everything correctly. i hope? but it sits a little higher on the right side and it is pretty much slammed on the left(which looks great!). i was thinking it might be worn out bushing on the drivers' side. solution, anyone?

From what iv'e read the bodys don't always sit perfect on the frame. I did all 4 and made accurate measurements from the suspension and ended up slightly off. I was high on one side of the rear and low on the opposite front so i treated it like a kitchen table. Shorten one corner brings height to the other corner. May work for you to if thats the case.
If its just one corner adjust one of the rears till you get it as close as possible. Remeber to take a good drive to settle the suspension before you make another measurement and adjustment.

wel the rear right bolt is showing about 1 thread less than the left rear to compensate for the rear but the fronts are killing me. the left is great but the right is slightly higher, and if i have a passenger, it sits just right, but i dont like passengers! 
oh well, thanks for the tip.

When I lowered mine I got the same thing. I had it aligned almost immediately since I installed new wheels and tires at the same time. I have had it that way for a year. I am going to do what was said previously, I am going to adjust the rear bolts and get it as close to perfect on all four ends as I can and then get a new alignment. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Just a thought, look at the spring ends as they sit in the lower A arms, is it centered or is the spring more to the right side? When I starting putting the 90 back together the spring wasn't centered, so I loosened it all and moved the spring half the distance, cleared right up. Of course I took the rubbers off the end.
