Thanks all now it makes sense. The chair legs did it for me. Any idea what a speed shop would charge to do this?

Default Weight jacking

Just to clear this weight distribution thing, when adjusting 4 corners weight transfers in an X pattern. The following numbers are just examples. If you raise the LR 2 turns it adds 20Lbs to LR and RF. Equal amounts are subtracted from the RR and LF. Get the same results with tire pressures by lowering the RR it will add weight to the LR and RF. If your car weighs 1200 in the front and 1200 in the rear NO adjustment will change this. The only way to change front to rear distribution would be to cut something off the front and weld it to the rear. Example, if you raise the rear equally 2 turns that is all you've done-raised the rear.

Disconnect both sway bars before you start the process.
