Default please help with suspension.

I just swapped 91 sir suspension on my si hatch and the back is fine. The front onthe other hand is fucked up. When I lowered it off the lift and turned the wheel straight one wheel is straight and the left side is turned to the right. I cant even test drive it to see If the brakes work fine or to get an aligement. Also I got skunk 2 coilovers and the are lowered all the way and its higher than when I had my springs. What do I do?

I bet the bar that turns the wheels is not connected at one side.

try using stock springs and see what happens. Maybe a bar was bent and you didn't realize it.

I changed my front suspention to 92-95 and one wheel was straight and the other was out to the side like 2 inches.. I just took off the steeering knuckle and loosened it and then I turned it out... and the wheel was straight... also about your springs.. you might have the fronts on the back and the backs on the front.. people do that all the time and it makes it highers cuz differnt spring rates
