I just lift the rear of the car by the axle and the shock mounting point is very solid. The crossmember has no cracks and the gap between the back of the mounting point to the trunk floor is the same as when I installed the coilovers. I much appreciate the help and concerns and previously read about the possible problems it could cause. I decided to go with the coilovers to see what difference it makes. Being that a OEM rear coil is only 130LBS/IN tension and this car is just a mildly driven cruising car I decided to give it a try. If it was a high HP drag car I would not have done it. That being said, I hope I never regret doing it

Could it be the rear sway bar, being it's mounted to the lower control arms be holding the driver side to a fixed position in relation to the pass side since it was tightened with the unbalanced height? Or the lower control arm bolts too tight and polygraphite bushings fighting movement?
