1998 Cobra Suspension Question
 
I am a the new owner of a 1998 Cobra Convertible, although it is a low mileage extra clean car, there are a couple of items I think I need to address. The car looks to sit a little lower on the left hand side, and the steering feels a tad loose. My daily driver is a 2009 BMW 528i, so I know this is an adjustment on the days I take the Cobra out, but it stills seems a bit much. Any suggestions? I don't want to lower it or alter the stock build as it is 100% stock, and as mentioned very clean and only 100,000. km. Any help on whether it is springs or struts, bushings etc I appreciate it.

Humorous, but not the issue in this case. I am not concerned with how so much as what is typically the remedy. I remember my 95 GT would be a different car depending on whether I was the only one in it, but I would have thought the Cobra would have been set up better.

How are the spring iscolators? They do tend to where. If so you can replace them with poly urathane ones.

Don't laugh so quickly, I knew a dude that was 350 to 400 lbs,strapping young lad, and he had heavy duty springs on the left side of his car and regular springs on the right side of the car so it would sit level when he was in it. True story.

Yikes, that would be a tight fit in my car. After 17 years away from them and the last two rides being new BMW's I forgot how cozy my 95 GT was. But I think this one will be in the garage for a while.
