    waiting for my 1.8 inch drop on my sprint springs

    Its been two weeks and i am still waiting for my sprint springs to drop. I got them installed and the front still looks like crap... the back settled pretty good though. SuperGalant didnt like his either. does anyone else have this problem? and does anyone have any advise on how to fix this? :smt022 :smt013

    the back about an inch but no noticable difference in the front. Can the shocks have something to do with it?

    were they installed correctly?? and made for your car?

    even if the springs were to settle, they wouldn't settle 1.8"

    struts don't affect ride height really.

    Don't cut them unless you want the worse ride possible. Just give it more time. Do you drive the car often? Do you have pics?

    Sprints with AGX on a 4cyl. The drop and ride is great.

    if lowering springs aren't lowering your car, then something is probably wrong with the springs or the install. you should speak to the manufacturer and/or the installer about your problem.

    well to me it sounds like you went the cheap way getting sprint springs from ebay am i correct, you should have went intrax or Eibach....i have intrax and love the drop 1.8f and 1.5 rear, but thats just me

    I know Sprint springs are cheap but i searched and i got alot of good feedback. A couple of people on TGC have them too. :smt012 I guess i need to give them more time and if that doesnt work i have to check out the install.. maybe thats whats wrong with it

    Sprint springs are decent and give a nice drop. I had a set in the past, however you might as well check the install now waiting wont do anything. Springs don't settle that much more to even notice a difference like your expecting.
