If it doesn't settle far enough for you, take the rubber spring isolators out of the front. That should give it another half inch or so

Make sure they're clocked right. The pigtails should end between the 2 holes.

CubanoGT, did they settle? If so, how long did it take?

I just got my pro-kit on yesterday. I love the drop and I don't scrape. However, the front is slightly (I'm talking .2 inch at most) higher than the back. Hard to notice unless you stare at it (which I do, a lot lol).

How long does it usually take for springs to settle? I don't want to have to take off the front ISO's.

Pigtails need to be facing DRIVERS SIDE and give them a week or two to settle in.

I rode around for almost two years bitching about my front being higher than the rears. Then I took it back apart and that was the problem.

LOL this is going to be a long two weeks... It's still a huge improvement already over stock

I helped the guy with my springs and I'm 90% sure he has the pigtails the right way, I knew beforehand to look for it.
