So I had them installed this past weekend. I bought them used and saw two with F on them and two with R on them, i assumed F are for front and R are for rears. The ride feels good and nothing out of the ordinary but the front driver side is higer then the passenger front, and the driver side rear is lower then the passenger rear. Any one have any ideas why it might be sitting like this. I doubled checked to make sure I had the two F in the front and the two R in the rears. I'll try to get a picture up tonight or something.

how much higher??

springs do take a little time to settle BUT the other question is are they properly seated?

I have the same set but havent installed them yet.

I can fit two fingers in the driver front, 1 finger in the passenger front, 1 finger in the driver rear, and 2 fingers in the passenger rear. What do you mean by properly seated? one side of the springs are flat and the other side isn't. I installed them with the flat side on the top hat of the shocks. The side of the springs that had full coil sat properly into the bottom shock. I was thinking they need time to settle since the previous owner said it was only on the car for a week.

Bass

yup they have to sit right into the bottom of the shock thing (so don't know the actual term) cubs is the spring wizard now.. but he's on vacation this week so hopefully he'll check in

I hope he and Erin are doing something fun for vacation!

did you preload the suspension before tightening everything ?

My first thought too. But you don't even need to take anything off in the rear to preload.

Were those original stickers to indicate F and R?
