93 LX FiveO

yesterday i finaly installed my frpp front lca's, bbk camber plates, agx struts, and frpp springs but now my struts sit too high in the strut tower and the hood is bowed when shut.

i had these parts installed on another car with the exception of the control arms and they rubbed the hood but did not sit this high...

did you put in the shim spacer things the CC plates came with?

93 LX FiveO

yes i did

Did you put them on under the c/c plates and not on top? Are the c/c plates installed correctly? Can you get some pics up of the installation?

93 LX FiveO

yes they are under the camber plates

i could not get the springs to sit in the new control arm perch's perfectly but it sits level and rides awesome.. my hood just looks like its open all the time...

if i loosen the top strut nut will that lower them?

Appears to be the right side more than the left...

I'd call up BBK and ask them. If you go over a good bump it looks like that strut top will go throught your hood.

well, that certainly sucks!

I probably would have chopped the top of the strut off by now... hahaha

my plans are to either:
a) remove the strut/plate assembly and make sure its not warped
b) cut hole in bottom section of hood
