plus i just saw on your pic that it looks like your runnings 50 series tires in the back and 60 in the front. switch em around and it will help fill in the gap.

 

quite possibly but he said that he gutted everything in the rear... not that it would make that big of a difference but it's possible

 

i have brand new shocks on the rear, put them on the day i put my springs on. ill check on the sizes of the tire, i dont think im runnin 50 in rear and 60 in front( i paid 300 bucks for those less than 1000 miles ago, so i better have the right sizes)

 

I had Eibach's on my 87 n/a which are also a .8 drop front and rear. Mine sat pretty high. Function > Form.

 

just checked tire sizes and they are both 205-60-15, but i noticed my car was sittin sideways a bit from the rear.does anyone else see this? also a pic of the new shocks i bought, monroe sensa track- anyone used these before?

edit- thanks for all your guys help!!

 

yea your car does look a bit tilted............ worse case is the rear sub frame broke or a previous accident....

monroe struts not bad but not that good either

 

wow, who installed the springs? you sure theyre properly seated and fully tightened etc?

i have a feeling it falls back to an installation problem, most of the rear weight is your gas tank anyway so i dont know what stuff you took out of the back, but i doubt it makes up for a full gas tank. (except the spare i guess)

if anything fill the back with lots of weight for a week or two and let the springs settle in. it being tilted like that im still thinking installation problem, or a fubar'ed car.

Lol monroe, rofl cakes.

How much were they?

 

$48 a piece. my car was in the air and i need shocks right then, and i still had to drive 40 miles to get them. but i put in the springs and made sure everything was on there good. i put everything back perfect. i think im going to do what techniks said and put like a full tank of gas flus a **** load of sand bags in it to try to get the rear broken in quick. and you would be suprised how much weight i got out the back. i took like 8 pounds of sound deadening tar, the spare, the sheet metal for the speakers i took of plus carpet and all panels. even the metal that was tack welded in the center i got of.

 

Check to make sure the spring seat is the same height as your stock shock. I have some koni and stock springs, and the rear of my car is very high comparing to stock. Not all spring seat heights are not the same. This might sound impossible but i bough some used koni shocks and their seat height is not the same as my new koni shock.

 

drive around an apartment complex a bunch of times. speed bumps settle springs and shocks pretty good.
