| if the new shock side is sitting higher, it means the new shock needs to settle. also the new springs will also need to settle. the passenger side in my car was lower than my drivers side, i put it down the gearbox being on that side. why do you think your ARB/driveshaft is rubbing???? i wouldnt think it is with 35mm springs. although if you go over massive bumps and considering you still got standard shocks that you will have a large amount of travel and then it MIGHT KNOCK. what is the sound like??? if its a continuous knock, even over smoother/flatter surfaces then it could be your ARB, howvere if its a grinding/rubbing noise when on full lock it could be your cv's. talk to me! | |

| are your wheels rubbing on the suspension? if so youll only need 5mm (ish) spacers. | |
