EG HELP: Converted back to stock height...
Ok, it's been several years since I lowered my car and now that it's back to stock it looks crazy high. The rear looks fine but the front is now over a fist high. I know it's a silly question, but is this normal. BTW, I left the tokiko blues in with the stock springs so could this have caused the extra height? Thanks.

just a guess, over the years your stock springs have uncompressed differently. I had same thing when I had to put my stock springs fro week back in after they've been out of the car for 1.5 year. the rear was jacked high in the sky.

Well from what I know, stock Eg's ride higher in the front than in the back to begin with. So maybe you just forgot what it looked like stock, unless it is crazy high. Then it might be that your springs uncompressed. Let the weight of the car ride on it for a while and see if it compresses again, or just find another stock Eg and compare ride height.

your probably just not used to it. I lowered my old eg the day I bought it, so I never seen stock height for more than a couple hours. When I switched to itr springs it freaked me out because it was mad high. So stock height should probably freak you out even more...
