Default suspension noise?

Hi all,

Need some help from you experts. I had my Koni Yellows installed about a month ago. At the time I noticed a ¼ inch height difference on the front left corner compared to the three other corners. At the time I didn’t think anything of it. Now, just last night, I heard some metallic scraping noise (kind of like a spring being stretched or compressed) coming from the front left tire well. I am not attributing the cause of the noise to the shock, but am curious if it is related. Is it normal for the shocks to be uneven, even by a ¼ inch? Please help, this noise has me kind of spoofed. It’s not a loud noise, I can barely hear it, and it only happens when I am turning back to the left from a complete right turn. (turning completely from right to the left, and only at certain points).
Thank in advance,
Gene

hmmmmmmmm
now with that said, you dont know anything about me so dont go posting blanked posts about me. if i talk about a car thats not mine i state that fact other wise i state from what i know to be true if i'm wrong i'm the first to be corrected and noted as such. as for you and ur 17 posts (at this moment 17) i havent seen 1 post where u have offered the slightest bit of help outside of bashing my posts. at least i'm offering some help that i know and when i dont know i either post a link for the person to find help or i ask a question in that persons thread. i dont talk about mod's i dont have or never will have
