I just had new shocks and springs as well as suspension bushings done front and rear on my 70 Chevelle. My rear height on the P/S is off by .75 even after switching springs from side to side. Any ideas what is causing this?
New suspension question

Could the body be off by that much?
Frame tweaked?
Hows the front?
Was the suspension tightened with the weight on it?
3/4 inch sounds like a bit much, but some variation is normal of course.

Do your coil springs sit in a type of slot or can you turn them?
Turning them so that they both face or opposite each other (the way there made) may make them even.

So, what kind of shocks did you end up getting? I know you were deciding between KYB and Bilstein
Make sure the rear coil springs are sitting in such a way that the end of the coil rung is up against the stop.
Did you drive it yet or is this the way it is sitting once off the jacks?

I drove it for a bit and noticed the difference when the car was in the garage which is level and where I took the measurements.
