uneven ride height help

the dealership replaced the driver side rear bilstein shock(leaking). Everthing else including the srping is stock. I now noticed the ride height on that side is about 3/8 inch lower. Any thoughts?

thanks

It's funny that you should mention this. Are you positive that it wasn't like that before you got it changed? Most cars are lower on the drivers side due to driver weight.

I noticed this when I was adjusting my coilovers and kept adjusting the one side till it was even. I mentioned this to my buddy and he said "you have a full tank of gas"

Nope. Filled tank and adjusted coils evenly. Evo I believe has a slightly split tank that goes over the driveshaft that can sometimes make one side lean a little. Just my experience, might not be yours.
