Default uneven drop

and yes i have searched, most people are talking about an uneven drop on either side, but my car is a lot higher in the back than front. The front sits perfectyl tucked but i have almost a three finger gap in the rear. I also double checked to make sure everything was on correctly. Im on Jackson Racing springs and KYB gr2s, i was thinking of getting just the ground control coilover sleeves to fix this problem, please help guys, its been like this for about three months now and i have no idea why

here's a pic to show a little what i mean, ill get some better ones with finger gap after class, thanks in advance

Springs usually drop the front lower than the back. That is how my neuspeed springs are.

all the springs are different.. i know the eibach sportlines sit lower in the rear.. give it a couple weeks so they can settle in.. they say it takes about a full year to get ur springs to sit right anyway

your gaps look fine.....it will almost always be lower in the front....think about it....you got that heavy *** engine plus your weight and any passengers and theres nothing in the back....

.ya mine was like that too..so i left the front springs on and changed the rear to coilovers and lowered it to make it even..i didnt switch the front to coilovers because i dont like the ride...so its a little stiffer with the front having springs
