i checked twice on the springs and the shocks..they're made for all civics 96-00. Installation might be bad...i dont know how it could've been that way...it's just take out and put new one in right?

springs couldnt have been upside down or else they wont fit on the shock....tall skinny ones on the front and short fat ones in the rear...i was thinking about "breaking" them in also....hm...looking for more possibilities....thanks for all your input!!
