Just got my C springs put in, and the left side (where my 220 self sits) looks great, but the right side hasn't settled as much yet. Will they eventually even out? I'm kind of worried now...especially because the left side looks GREAT

Is it higher on both front and back passenger side? I just put mine on a few weeks ago, and they really didn't "settle" much. I removed the upper isolators on the front and back and got a solid 1 1/2" drop on all 4 corners.

yep on both sides. Mine settled even from when I got it back from the shop, that's quite odd. I really hope it evens out..

Well another thing.. i saw when i put my buddies in, you have to make sure that the pig tails of the springs are in the SAME place on both sides.. iam sure you know this but its something that can be miss-judged and over looked or something..

Other wise just take it 4wheeling and make them spring settle down.. haha JK JK

When I had H&R supersports in the front the right side of my car sat about a 1/2 inch higher. I think it was the frame because Ford has certain production tolerances that are aloud, which sucks because then your frame could be off from the factory. I ended up getting coilovers so I could adjust it from side to side to balance it out. This might be your problem, but hopefully not.

yeah that does suck, mine evened out fine after a day of driving. Looks like they settled a lot, i like the drop the C springs give you. I didn't wanna go too low on the crappy NJ roads

Got any pics yet? How much of an overall drop did they give you? For the money, the "C" springs are hard to beat!
