Took a couple hours last night put them in and now to see how they settle in after a bit. Here are some quick pics from when i got to work this morning. So far no bottoming out. I dinged a couple manhole covers and some fair tracks to test it but nothing yet. I will have to get an alignment due to the fact my right front was wearing before the drop. Now i notice a pull to the right more so than before.

Lol I had to repack the upper strut bearing (yes i took it apart) because it sounded like marbles and gravel in it whereas the drivers was fine. Its all good now.

For some reason I have a bad feeling about your springs man....

I has the same issue with my car, and it turned out to be pretty serious.

Good luck.
