Im trying to figure out why i cannot get my challenger level. For starters its got 4 brand new shocks, two brand new leaf springs (both are the same number of leafs), rebuilt front suspension. I have not had to car aligned yet since suspension rebuild.

The problem is that my passenger side in the rear is sitting higher that the driver (by a good 3/4 inch. Is this something that i can adjust? My torsion bar tensioners are set at about the same height...

Any help would be great...

try adjusting the torsion bars level the car.the front can affect the rear some.Don't worry about the bolt lengths/adjustment not being the same.Very rarely does that ever happen.if its a huge amount. could be a problem.a few turns either way is no big deal.

adjust the front end via the t-bars. make sure you are on level ground and measure from the ground to the bumper. That said the pass side might sit higher until the springs settle in as it has one extra leaf in it...or at least it should.
