Default "Lowered" 98 DX coupe

Hey I just got done insalling some eibach pro-kit springs. It's supposed to be a 1.5" drop. I installed the springs in the front, lowered the car off the jack, and it's the same height as stock! Do the springs need to be broken in or something? I figured I would notice the drop right away. Even though its only 1.5"s, i should still see a difference..shouldnt i? thanks people

Hmm.....should the taller, thicker springs go in the front...or the thinner, shorter ones? Neither are marked front/rear..and the part number is not visible on one set.

I don't have the prokits so I'm not sure which ones go where. They should have a product code on them to figure front or back. It may take a little time for the springs to settle also.

well, me and my friend changed his springs on his truck, we dropped 4" in the back from stock, and u could only see bout 2" difference, then about 3 weeks later.. it was slammed, so just give the springs some time, and they'l pull through..
