When i was testing out the flex on my new OME HD lift my rear driver side spring popped out, lucky someone saw it happen and they pushed on it with a board when i backed up. After it went back into it's seat the driver side sat alot higher than the pass. side. It almost looks like 1/2-1inch difference. I am ordering either spring retainers or cones , but how do i fix the uneven height

I have a RHD defender that sits high on the drivers side and my LHD sits high on the drivers side. I have been told that it is normal for the drivers side no matter which side it is to sit a little higher. "They" say that it levels out when the driver sits in the car. I dont know if this is true or not but take a look sometime at discos and defenders when they are parked and I bet you see the drivers side raised a bit on the majority of them. I have seen people use 1/2 spacers on the springs to level it out but supposedly the parked droop is supposed to be there. Dont know if it's true, just what I heard.
