I just bought a set of eibach pro kit for my 04 mustang gt coupe. last night i installed the rear springs and did not go any farther. because before i started it was 3.5 inches from tire to fender.after the install it still is 3.5 inches....what the hell is going on here??? i called eibach aand they told me i need to install the front for it to all work. hard to believe the front will lower the rear...has this happened to anyone else?

 

install them all, drive for a week or so and let them settle in, they WILL come down, as long as they are seated correctly

 

Do you have the spings sitting right. on both sides the bottom pig tail of the spring should be pointing to the drive side of the car.

 

put some miles on those springs then ull see a difference

 

yes i have both pointing to drivers side

 

You may have torqued the LCA's when the car was still in the air. Did you tighten them AFTER the weight of the car was on the wheels?

I had all the weight on the axle tubes when i tightened the bolts

 

i had the same issue with my '98 but i had the whole kit. it took 2 to 3 days of driving before they started to settle and i noticed to difference in stance.

 

They will settle... give it time. I have the same springs on my car.
