Clocking?

[thebaldlatino5.0]

So I've posted on here before, about my driver side dropping down when jacked up, but the passenger side doesn't drop at all. like the wheels are stuck up in place almost. Do I need to get the car jacked up completely off the ground to do this or do I need to find a shop to clock my bushings cause i'm guessing something is keeping them up and not allowing them to drop normally?

Are you sure everything is properly installed? Could be a mix of needing to clock the bushings (that's done with everything fully loaded, not jacked up btw) and the spring not properly seated perhaps.

I'm gonna inspect everything this coming weekend since I won't have much to do. gonna put the car up and inspect all the way around the car without the wheels on probably. or leave them on.

What is this clocking process? Video or tutorial available? I'm about to install a whole pile of BMR parts on my car.

Theres a printout somewhere. Basically you loosen and tighten all the suspension parts that have binding rubber bushings with the car resting level on it’s tires at ride height. If you tighten those down while the suspension is off the ground, you’re ‘setting’ it in that position. It helps to have an alignment rack (i.e. a drive on lift) to get at those parts with the suspension at ride height)
