Ok I need some help I
just put new drag launch springs on my coupe and droped the car down on the ground and there is a foot of gap between the tire and the fender. The springs are cut everything was done right. I changed out the springs due to the old springs having the car jacked up to so I figured I would put new springs in and I cut a half coil off. So why would the car still be so high in the back when I say a foot I mean a foot of gap. Something is seriously wrong here and I don't think it is with the springs or control arms. When you try to Jack up the pumpkin it doesn't raise up underneath the car it starts lifting up the car right away. Could be something drivetrain related? Like the drive shaft or slip yoke being wrong and causing bind in the rear? I need help with this the car drives fine and quiet

Sorry for being so long thanks
