arch scrapping issues!

so i lowered the micra today, all went sweet,
except the only issue is... its sat about 15mm lower on the drivers side? panhard rod? bush's?
the scraping is starting to annouy me:eek:
cheers in advance for any help!
 
yes mate positive i got that bit right!
just dont have a clue why its sat low on one side?
only scraping on the drivers rear aswell? can think what it would be !
 
Did you keep the rubber top and bottoms on? (might have forgot one/dropped out). Driver side rubs on load if you don't have frank bush or adjustable pan hard. But shouldnt sit one sided :/ pics?

sorry to ask so many question's,
but what does this bush achieve? just so i can get my head around it!
 
its offset mate, so it shortens the p/rod by 7.5mm (15mm of wheel poke/tuck difference)
best to measure yours first, to see if it will correct your axle shift :)

how would i go about measuring the difference? cant really tell with the 15's on!
look downwards with a tape against the top of the tyre sidewall, and sight a line down from the arch down to the and top and bottom sidewall, the tape will show how many mm difference in the left and right sides :)
 
mate just measured it, said its between 10-15mm?
are the bush's easy to fit? any re-welding required or?

the bush is sometimes rusted onto the stump, if not its just 1 nut and lever the rubber one out, then bash the 2 nylon ones in :)
