Can someone make a strut spacer?
I have a 6th gen Civic coupe.
Here's the deal. My car is lopsided. Driver's side is a bit lower than pass. side. I changed the springs and struts, still same problem. I took it to Miami Chassis and they told me i'm SOL. So all I can think of to do while maintaining my springs and not getting coilovers is to use some kinds of spacer. I can't find anyone that makes these so I was wondering if someone can cut one up for me.
I don't have the exact measurement. The guy from he shop said it was 1/4" but when i measured b4 i dropped it, it was closer to 1". I'm guessing the best place to put it would be between the frame/body and the strut mounting plate.
So, is there anyone who can make these or suggest any other solutions?

were are you measuring? if its the fender gap kill your self. If its to the unibody points on a alighnment hoist then OK. If you go ------- with your 4 corner wieghts just to get your fender jap even you will have a fucked car when it comes to cornering. Why are you worried about a 1/4 inch
The guy said it's 1/4", but i know it's more. When you stand away from the car u can tell it's crooked. It doesn't look right. The guy at the shop said "If it's not the springs or shocks (which it's not since i changed them) then it's the unibody. So you're SOL." So I just want something to even it out, it'd be the equivalent of adjusting a coilover but i'd be keeping my springs. I like the way my eibachs are and If i get coils it's gonna be more expensive and the ride will prolly be a bit harsher.
its tilted to the left i bet. its because your probabyl a fatass. you sit on the driver side all the time. your driver side shock/springs get worked 40 times harder thant the right hand side. i weigh almost 300 lbs. every car ive ever owned, gangster leans to the left for that reason. you cant fix it, its just what happens. stop being a homo and ride.

You don't think 300lbs. is going to drop one side of your ~2000lb. car? That's like ~15% of the cars total weight sitting in the driver seat.
