Megan Racing Coilovers keep changing height as I drive.

HA, no one want's leftovers... You know if they sold a set of springs that matched the mix and matched look it would sell like hotcakes!

Ok I have to ask those with Megan Racing street series coilovers if they put any pre-load on the springs before the weight of the car is on them? I especially want to hear from those with NA cars, but I would like to hear from anyone as I am in the process of checking and adjusting them right this moment. I have started to wonder if maybe the fact that I have some pre-load on my springs might be a reason why my coilovers tend to move on me. Also maybe because there are some spots that need to be greased to keep the springs from binding when you turn.

Well I need to figure out if how much pre-tension I put on my kit is what was causing my moving problem. I don't even know what they were like when I bought them since I never bothered to take measurements. Meaning I have no idea if they come with any pre-tention at all, because I changed the position of the spring perch rings, and I did that because I didn't know how to adjust them properly for many months after I installed them. So I really need to know what everyone else is doing differently for them to not have any problems. I still wonder if I'm not adjusting them right, but I suspect I have it more dialed in now than more previously.

Ideally, you'd have no preload on the springs. I'd suggest getting it corner balanced to make sure it's all set up right.

Are shops in general going to know what corner balancing is? I ask because I have never even heard of corner balancing before this thread, let alone know of any shops that do it.
