G'day guys,

I've just thrown in a set of lowered springs into the LX sedan here and the springs themselves are really loose with the car in the air and the suspension at full drop.

To me it doesnt seem right, there's probably 7-8mm of movement in the spring up and down and personally I would have thought both ends of the spring would need to be in contact with the lower arm and spring housing.

Am I thinking wrong or should I throw the wheels back on drop her on the ground and drive away??

A new set of Kings springs have fixed the situation and the new ride height is great!!! The others were so bad a jack wouldnt even fit under the front crossmember, would be horrible on the road.
Cheers
