    Maybe I’ll answer my own question
    Is it that the drivers side has more pre load applied

    Short answer, yes. Driver, gas tank, and battery are all on one side so drivers side assembly has to compensate.

    Undoubtedly. If they charged $100k per side for the coilovers, they would still be cheaper in the long run.
