So I just had the vette lowered on the stock bolts and have driven it to get everything to settle. I measured the driver side rear to be 3/16" maaaybe even 1/4" at the very most lower than the passenger rear. Is this enough for concern? Will it throw the driving dynamics way off or should I just not worry about it?

I'd have it corrected.

Don't they have that amount of variation from the factory anyways?

Damn you! You made me go out and check.
LF 27 7/16", RF 27 1/4"
LR 28 5/8", RR 28 7/16"
Hot in my garage, even at 9:30
DS is 3/16" higher front and rear than PS. I guess I have a project for winter; slightly (1/2" maybe, just not sure what side to be 1/2", haha) lower my car, and level it.
I kinda always thought my DS side seemed a hair higher, now it'll bug me.
Still, if I paid a shop to lower my car I'd expect it to be closer than yours.

Haha it wasn't my intention to have you check yours. But hey, now I know I was correct in saying mine is within the factory tolerances. Even though the other side is the lower side, I don't think I'll worry about it. Appreciate the help!

You guys have to keep in mind that the driver's side of the car will settle when you plunk your *** down behind the wheel.

bmarcinczyk14

Yup fully aware of that. Thing is mine's higher at the passenger side, still don't think it's enough for concern. Plus I'm not fat either so I don't think my *** will create all that much of a difference lol.

OK in my case (if 190# would actually drop it by 3/16"), rhe OP is already low on DS however.

Does the amount of gas in the car affect the ride height? Since the tank looks to be on the drivers side, will filling it up lower the driver side?

grantv

Dual tanks... should be evenly distributed AFAIK.

Good to know, thanks!

If you have the same number of threads showing on the bottom of the lowering bolt, you should be level.
