Rear ride height

[MoparMan]

I noticed that the driver's side of my Viper sits about 1/4 to 1/2 inch lower than the passenger side when viewed from the rear. Is this by design (sort of like running different rate rear leafs in a muscle car to counter act torque)?

No, it means you need to go on a diet

Sorry dude, too easy

I should have seen that one coming. Luckily, I'm not that heavy so I think my feelings have been spared.

Lower it! All Vipers need t be lowered anyway.

I have enough trouble getting it out of the driveway at the stock height!

My 97 GTS (God bless its soul) had the same condition. Always irritated me when I looked at it from the driveway. My 02 RT/10 doesn't have the problem.

Perhaps there is a way to re-adjust the suspension. I always reasoned that as nasty as my 97s rear end sounded and looked, no one would notice it anyway. So perhaps, that is your answer.

I'm starting to have second thoughts about my RT/10 being lowered. I can only go up the driveway backward. I can only go on the lift in the garage backward or use boards to assist. And road clearance is downright scary. I think the Gen I fascia is closer to the ground to begin with.

Quite a bit of work to change it back. Oh well, at least I don't drive it very often so it does not create much of a headache.
