The springs will take a few weeks to settle, but should only be about a half inch higher than they should. Make sure the springs are sitting in the a-arm in the groove like their supposed to, and also not reinstalling either the upper, lower, or both isolators will make it lower as well.

I have never heard of dropzone springs. Could it be the wrong springs. ?????

would it be ok to install them without the bottom and upper rubber pieces?
they are installed correctly bc i have taken them out and put them back in very carefully and i know that they are in the grooves.

the front will only fit on the front and the rear will only fit on the rear, the springs will only fit in one way.
