I need help here. I had the eibach prokit installed on my 01 cobra and had it aligned the same day. The damn thing only dropped 1 inch in back and it's been over 1 month. People with the pro kit, how long did it take for your springs to settle to the right heighth?

make sure the pigtails (end of the spring at the bottom) is facing towards the left of the vehicle, the driver side. that could affect ride height. also, the pro kit isnt a huge drop anyway. you shouldnt expect much more.

im assuming you mean the correct way and not to the right. anyway, then after a month, your springs probably arent gonna settle any more. doesnt the pro kit advertise like a 1.2" drop in the back anyway? if you wanted a bigger drop, the sportlines or H&R's would have been a better choice


EDIT: ooooh. i just re-read your first post and realized you had your car aligned the same day you had your springs installed. thats bad. when the springs settle, they change the alignment again. you should have waited about 2 weeks. hopefully the place you got it done offers a 90 day warranty or something. tell them you want another one.

Doesnt matter I'm going to need new springs in the rear anyway. They havent lowered to the 1.4-1.5 as advertised. When they put the new ones on I'm going to tell them I want my alignment done in 2 weeks.

thats too bad that youre having to change your setup, but if it will make you happy, GO FOR IT! good job on waiting 2 weeks for the alignment, and good luck to ya!
