would anyone mind posting some pics of the installation or finished product of the undercar view of a Fk coilver installed...

I went to install...took apart the entire rear suspension but couldnt seem to get them 2 fit right.. theyt seemed far too short to fit...when applying a decent amount of pressure wit a jack i was still able to move them around if i pushed hard enough...this i figured was clearly not normal and....i dont have any instruction manual or anything...so i wanted to see how u guys set it up... post, pm or email at girard.k@hotmail.com

U guys havent let me down yet

i dont know how they work but i think a good idea would be for you to post pictures of where you are at right now with the install.

drop the car on the ground and then check it again .. you'll probably never get enough pressure on the springs using the jack before it starts to try and life the car
