Not having a Tweak Station, make absolutely sure that the left & right shocks are the EXACT same length. I use a Digital Caliper modified to measure the Center to center length of my shocks. I shoot for a MAX difference of .001 with .0005 prefered. You would be amazed at much more pressure a shock a few .000 longer will put on a wheel, causing the car to pull. If you do not have access to Calipers, a Machinist ruler or shock building fixture can get you pretty close.
