Hi everyone. I installed the complete Eibach Pro-Kit Springs and Dampers over the weekend. The front dropped a little over an inch but the rear is still at stock height. I did install polyurethane isolators at the same time too. Anyone ever experience this? I followed their instructions on spring placement inside the perch and verified part numbers etc.

I did. But they went down after a few days and a few drives. Give it a little more time maybe. Also..are you sure you had stockers on b4?

My suspension is stock and the front end rides high every time I jack it up. After some driving it settles back down. Let us know how things come out.

The spring rates on eibach springs are higher than stock because they are lower it will take a week or soo and some good bumps to settle everything in just right!

Agreed with everyone, it does take a bit of driving before a set of springs will settle. It's also important to make sure you install the rear springs properly. Your ride height will change depending on which way the bottom of the spring is pointing. Both should be pointing to the driver's side. If they're pointing towards the rear or the passenger side, the rear will ride higher. If each spring is pointing in a different direction, the rear of the car won't be level.
