Default After my drop!!

Well the before pic is still in my sig, but here's how the drop looks. I think I'm going to have to take another look at the passenger front spring because it hasn't dropped as much as the driver's side has. I don't know if you guys can really tell from these pics but it needs to go down another 1/4-1/2 inch. I think the driver's side looks sweet though.

Well I have the car jacked up and the wheel off and the spring on front passenger side looks fine. It's in there good, the pig tail on the bottom is facing the same way the stocker was and the isolator looks good. Should I really try taking the top isolator off or does that hurt the car or the ride?

I have the pro-kit.

Thanks, the ride is the same as before and I can tell that the handling tightened up a bit which feels really nice. It's just this one side that's annoying me. I want it all to be level!!! [:@]

Ok well the spring's out again and it's all apart in my garage so I could really use some opinions on how to fix this problem. I'm thinking about the isolator idea like acer said but I don't know if I wanna do that or not.

Well it sounds like you already checked to make sure the spring is seated right.

Removing the upper isolator will drop it that extra 1/4 inch you are looking for. You may pick up a little noise doing it but you shouldn't hurt the car doing it. I know of several people on other boards that have removed them with no ill effects.
