Ok so my OME lift story.
I went with 927/948 springs. .25" top plate. .357" clevis spacer. I should expect lift to be in the 3.5" range or 22.5" hub to fender measurement.
First install. Let everything settle in. DS hub to fender = 21.5" or 2.5" lift. PS hub to fender 22" or 3" of lift.
Thought the springs were the problem. Had them replaced under warranty. Got new springs. Re-did install. Also replaced LCA bushing for the clevis fork. Everything sat a lot higher at first this time but after a week of driving the fender measurements are THE EXACT SAME AS THE FIRST TIME.
So now Im lost. What other variables are there? Is there any way the struts could be put together wrong? If the other bushings on the LCA were worn out would that affect ride height?
Im tempted to just start adding conduit nuts to at minimum level it out. But im not sure if that's the right thing to do here because it seems like something else is wrong and I should figure out what that is.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated at this point.
