This much I'm aware of.. I asked which shocks because if he's using shocks that were bad before lifting it, they probably won't provide much help for the springs.. and was thinking that perhaps given the right circumstances, his new springs have been worn down to the different heights.. the lowest being which the wheel with the shock that was the worst, therefore has worn on the new spring the most..
Mostly was just checking to see if he put new shocks on with the springs, though I'm aware many don't and their springs typically don't sag that quickly.. especially within 15k km.
Just figured if he's convinced the shocks were right in the first place but still bad shocks.. that maybe he'd replace the shocks, and get new springs again to go with.. and this time, be 250% positive they're the correct ones.
Either way.. yeah, new springs are in order here.

You said 927 before in front, now 926s , which is it?
I'm sorry, error of copy/past....
I'm uses OME shocks :
Front : OME2927 Spring with 90009 shock
Rear : OME2948 Spring with 60069 shock
How to check the references of the springs? With a label? An engraving ?

springs should have a tag on them

This sounds similar to me.
My rear end is fine. both sides sit 22" even w/ 948 and one extra iso per side.
But my front end has 927 with .25 strut spacer and .375 clevis spacer.
The passenger side sits at 22 and 1/8" which is low from what it should be with all those parts, I was expecting 3.5"
And the driver side sits at 21.5 which is like there is no extra spacers on there at all.
I thought something was wrong with the spring and got them replaces by ARB under warranty. Got the same results. And when I took the first set of springs out they are still the exact same height. All springs had 927 tag.
Im still lost over this one and have no time to fix anything. Still running around on stock wheels.......

driver side usually sits lower. I have ironman lift and with one extra isolator in the rear it sits at 23.5 on both sides. The front driver side i have 3 ring clevis and passenger side 2 ring clevis. DS sits at23" and PS is 23 1/4 "
