I think it is because the front is now in the air compared to the rear. But its only a 2in drop so it wouldn't be that crazy..

lol... uh, then finish the project, then get back to us with good pics. i don't know what exactly your asking for?? it doesn't look like much of a drop at all yet, but the pics are both terrible so meh....

you broke the stud on the actual strut? the one that is supposed to go up into the engine bay/strut tower? uh.... yikes dude... good luck! working on cars sucks, it's always something ridiculous that gets in the way of a completed project....

but we must all love that... or we'd find a new hobby...

I know..I put it on in the dark so thats all i have lol..I do think its lowered because its like sagging compared to the front. lol I wish i could afford coilovers but right now these were dirt cheap i got them for a hell of a deal..

I'll put the fronts on tomorrow..

and yeah that..It just kinda snapped I wasn't even putting that much force on it..lol

Agreed, it will prolly take a few couple days/weeks before the car sits like it should. Even then it won't look very low. Imo most drop springs make the car look the way it should stock, and stock springs make 240s look rally ready...

If you want a noticeable low then don't waste your time on springs and struts, been said a million times.

You cannot even notice the drop yourself, say enough?
