are the springs actually resting correctly? and not on the piece that holds them in? also did you use the right ones up front/back?

Lol, don’t feel bad. A friend and I, set out on a mission to put his springs on, in record time. I took one side and he took the other. Bam, 30 min. later we were like expletive yeah, we’re bad ***. Dropped it down and was like WTF, go get the okleys, and a can of Budweiser and start growing a mullet. So when I read your post I knew exactly what you did and how you feel. It’s a cheap lesson, at least you didn’t put pistons on backwards or some thing like that.

looks good. there is an adjuster under the hood, looks like a rubber bumper thing (yes i know that discribtion sucked) turn it in a couple times your hood looks like it is sitting high.
