ORIGINAL: riceburner700

did you put the right springs on the front and the right ones on the back?
I believe so, the springs are marked w/ a model #. Two of them started with F-###, those went of the front, and the R### went on the back. Is that right?

Im having a similuar problem with my 00 civic. i bought the lowering kit from tokico. shocks and springs. the blue shocks are the hp series and it came with tokico red springs. the drop is suppose to be a 1.4 drop but my problem is that the front end of the car looks the same maybe a little higher and the back drop way more than 1.4 i can put three finger between the tire and wheel well lip in the front and only one in the back. plus i cant drive the car without the rear hitting the rear wheel well lip whenever i accelerate hard or taking a turn. i also install a camber kit on all four shocks and had the car alignment done. i have after market tires and rims on the car 17" tire size 205/40r17. i had to put back on the factory rims back on the rear so i can drive the car till i get it fix. i called tokico and the tec told me to take the camber kit off. that i dont need it with that small of a drop. is that true. any suggestion on how i can fix this problem... thanks

Okay, I just reinstalled my springs and I did install them correctly. Afer the reinstall it sits even and there is no more shaking when I hit 70mph I guess I fudged something on the 1st install but all is good.
