I can't imagine that there would be any way that it could change hieght if everything is tight, as the only thing that determines ride hight is a consitant measurement from the top plate through a stiff spring into the bottom shock body. This will only settle a small amount, and shouldn't really be different left to right.
The last time hit the C spanner with a hammer on my gto i broke the locking nut lol'
There only made of aluminum
'Sorry i forget the prppa name for them
and by damm was it hard to get a replacement.
Im just on lowering spring on my s13 at the mo:
It don't sit prfect' but what the hell lol
