LOWERED VETTE
I was under my c5 last nite and noticed the bolts (one you turn to lower) are not showing the same amout of threads from side to side...is this normal ?? My car has been lowered about 1 inch from stock. should the threads be exposed the same side to side, or will the be different due to spring rate?/ the car set level and goes straight,,drives great...well?????

Re: LOWERED VETTE (wrustywrench)
I wouldn't be concerned about having the same number of threads showing on the bolts as I would be in having the same measurements from a level ground to the top of the wheel fender (or some other reference point on your car) to ensure the car is truly level or even once lowered. There are other factors that would account for a "level" car even though the number of threads on the bolts may be a little different.

The amount of threads showing mean absolutely nothing.
The variances side to side in materials account for this.
The true ride height is measured at 4 spots under the car.
