Yes they were intalled correctly. I think it I'd impossible to install them incorrectly. I installed them myself using taco bill's guide and various other guides. Should I contact Ford Racing? Or streesideauto? What am I supposed to even say..

My Saleen springs took 3 weeks to settle down to there actual lowered height. Also my Eibach springs took a week and a half to settle. Give them a few days or a week of hard driving. I'm assuming the Ford springs lower the car 1.5 inches? Erik

Did you forget to remove the Jack stands? Only kidding

You will find they will settle somewhat over the next week or so, but they do seem to be stuck up there a little more than I would expect.

@EOLSON - Yes, the FRPP springs drop the car 1.5"

Uh oh.

Those are NOT FRPP. Sorry.
I don't care if there's the correct part number on the box... I can switch boxes too!

Last year or so, there was a scam going on with Blue Oval Industry that claimed they were selling FRPP springs but they were not.
They were on sale for $189 or so but they lowered the cat only a 1/4".
I'm sure you got a set of those somehow (left over).

I'll see if I can find the threads...

Found it!!
Read through carefully...

Edit: Blue Oval Industry (BOI) is not to be confused with Blue Oval Performance!
Blue Oval Performance is a much better place to deal with...

Brings back bad memories.
I wonder if those ******** are still in business? (too lazy to Google)
