Disco 2 Passenger side 1cm higher than driver's, how to level?

I recently changed my front coils from factory to Dobinsons C51-032 and put the longer one in the driver's side, but now the passenger side sits higher, for some reason:

Front driver: 515mm
Front passenger: 526mm
Rear driver: 482mm (new air springs)
Rear passenger: 482mm (new air springs)

Is that normal that there's an 11mm difference at the front? How does yours sit?


Car specs: V8 Discovery 2a, 2003 with ACE and air suspension

Before changing, here's how it sat before from the factory (also higher on passenger):

Front driver: 484mm
Front passenger: 493mm
Rear driver: 471mm (old air springs)
Rear passenger: 474mm (old air springs)

Also, it's funny that my rear raised up even though I didn't touch the ride height sensor or do any calibration. All I did was put in new air bags.

When you get in it, it'll drop, so that is prolly how they are thinking!!!

soz dunno noffink about airbags.

Seriously driver's side springs are always higher to compensate for mostly having just the one person in that seat.
Commonsensically, even if there is a passenger in, there will always have to be a driver too.

And somewhat sexistly, if that is a word, usually when a couple get in a vehicle it is more often the (heavier) bloke that does the driving. (although I have known some skinny little blokes with big wives!)

I'd better shut up now afore I get chucked off here!

Maybe you didn’t notice, but it’s the passenger side that is (and was) higher

With coil springs there is a left and right springs to allow for road camber. Its 10mm you are talking about, the thickness of a fag, how do you even notice the difference.

Bet you don't get many roll ups out of a packet of backy

My passenger side is always higher than driver side unless driver side parks on kerb. I have used nanocom to lower/raise left/right side, but after I drive back, the problem is still there. I am not sure, maybe one of height sensors is faulty.

No I didn't. It should be the other way round.
