they were not followed and the car was sitting really high in the front. I undid the bolts myself, drove around, bounced on the suspension and got it to settle a lot. Retorqued.

I can try the same process again? Anything else I can do to see if the front will settle more?

See 'the Rocky Tips' we have in the product descriptions, his method seems to get car to final 'lower' position faster.

Hi Brian,

What height do I compress the springs/shocks to? Or will I feel when they are at maximum compression?

tried the "rocky" method and got the same result. Approx 355mm still in the front.
