EFS Lift Problems

[Soybean]

Hey guys, i just installed new efs 40mm lift 0-300kg leaves and greaseable shackles on a 2012 D22 STR.
The passenger side is almost 30mm higher then the drivers side.
Had a look over the springs for any different part numbers or markings and the springs were exactly the same.
Are there different springs for driver and passenger sides?

It may pay just to swap then around anyway to see. Start with the easier things first. The drivers side spring is usually over done to take the fuel tank aswell.

Hey mate, thanks for the quick reply.
Yeah, sounds like i'll be swapping them around asap.
Been doing a bit of research and it sounds like drivers side is always a bit stiffer.
Glad 4WD1 told me that

you could just wind the other one up to compensate.

Must be a new style of leaf springs if you can wind them up!

Hi Fella's

I have EFS rear springs fitted as well and from memory when I fitted my springs there was no difference in the the springs.

Maybe two different load rated springs?

haha my bad for some reason I was thinking the torsions were the problem even though I read leaf springs

edit: how many leaf packs are in each one? are they all the same thickness ect?

Perhaps before you muck around with it send a pm to zordo he knows efs like the back of his hand.

EFS rear springs are the same left to right.
If you have the 300kg spring they both should be NIS-19E

Mate i have the same issue with drivers side riding lower and i cant work it it out either

 

[ZORDO]

The Torsion bars can play a part in the rear being lower or higher.
If the r/h/r is lower you can lower the L/h/f torsion bar & that will raise the r/h/r.
Or the opposite raising r/h/f will lower L/h/r
Cheers
