I just got done putting my stock springs and struts back into my 96 EX coupeafter having skunk2 coiloers in the car for two years, all went well till I finished the job and stood back and looked at the car. The thing looks like i just installed a lift kit into the car, it looks ridiculus. Is this normal, will it eventually settle down? I know the car shouldnt sit this high. Thanks

yes
they will go back to stock heigth.

 

OT: Kamin sweet sound setup on the sleeper

 

hehe thanks

 

Did you compress your stock springs first? cause you need to compress the spring if u r going to raise your car, (i might bee wrong)

 

I had to compress them to put them back on the struts. But that is the only compressing of the springs that iI did.

 

They will settle back down, this happens every time i jack up my car even, they will be around .5" above where they finally settle to, but this is on a 97 ex coupe, not a 96, so there might be some difference in the springs, so i dont know how much yours will settle. Should be pretty close tho.
