you sayign front is higher than the rear, or the fronts are 3/4 inch higher than they were?

FESTER 01-17-2007 07:12 AM

The front is 3/4" higher than the rear! The rear of the car sits and looks great, but the front is higher and makes it look like the rear of the car is dragging

the fronts have two mounts for the perch... mount it on the lower one

I dont understand. you changed shocks and you gained ride height? thats not supposed to happen. shocks dont support any weight, they just control the up and down movement.
