when you get your alignment, the front should come slightly down. How did you make out with the install?

the install was a PIA! and now im looking at my coils and cant decide if theyre in right.....are they suppose to sit in perfectly with the whole bottom coil touching the lower control arm 100%? mine is in their but its hard to explain....like it doesnt look right.like it doesnt sit flush in their and im not sure if thats just how the coil is since it wraps upward....it may suppose to be like that. i guess im just gonna have the guys at my shop look at it.hopefully an alignment will bing it down. like i said its about .5" higher in the front.

It doesn't ride any smoother, just level. I actually think it rides slightly harder in the front now.

mmstar23 - did you place the spring correctly back in when reassembling the strut?

.5" is quite a bit difference. Did you measure the height in the front and back before you bought the leveling kit?
