Gabrial struts with coilover sleeves binding
So I'm new here but I have a 98 coupe with a d16y7 in it. I recently put gabrial struts with coilover sleeves. I believe I'm experiencing binding because I'm pretty low and my car vibrates violently under acceleration. What options do I have to solve this. Thanks ahead of time

Before anyone says search I did and almost everything was h22 related. I just want to know if I should replace the axle or can I keep the one I have and lift the car

I have a feeling there's a lot of stupid going on here.
"Pretty low" doesn't tell us anything. It also doesn't tell us alignment specs, which would affect binding. Give us complete information.

Re: Gabrial struts with coilover sleeves binding
Honestly I havnt done any measurements but I did not get an alignment and my oilpan is about an inch and a half to 2 inches off the ground. I understand there oem replacements and I obviously shouldn't be slammed on them but **** it if I have to raise the car then so be it. The vibration is unbareable at this point and doesnt seem safe. The odd part is the car only vibrates while accelerating. Not while rolling but my mounts are all pretty good
