Anyone else install Arnotts all-around...
...and notice their rear tire clearance is about a quarter inch off? By that I mean, the driver side rear is lower than the passenger side rear. Is this normal? I had both fronts replaced in June and both rears done just last week, all at a local Benz dealer. It's noticeable at all driving heights within a 50mm range (w/ LCM). Looking at the tail end, a careful eye reveals the left side sagging like a fat guy's stuntin' it...and I'm a slick 150lbs. What's the deal?

The fronts have individual ride height sensors, the backs do not .. has one ride height sensor. So if for whatever reason it got installed crooked, it will likely stay that way. It is possible to go in to Star and raise/lower individual shocks/struts. Surprised the dealer let you leave that way.

Okay so evidently it's normal according to the dealer. My tech said as long as it's within a 10mm height variation from side-to-side, that the vehicle is within factory specifications.
Anyone have an Arnott unit fail after using an LCM at a lowered setting for an extended period of time?
