Lowering springs are designed to maintain that spring rate, while giving you the shortened spring. What brand springs do you have? You more than likely just need to give the springs a chance to settle in. Most brand new lowering springs will take a couple days/weeks to finally drop down completely.
If you want though, I will gladly chop your springs for you and reinstall them, since you are willing to pay cash. I wouldn't advise it though.
Haha, I know, but I really just want it lowered!! You have no idea how much this irrates me, spending as much time as I did, and it not changing a thing...
OK, well, let me keep the new strut and "lowering spring" on my front left wheel for a week or two and see if anything happens...lol... Then I'll get back to you...
P.S. Illegal to cut springs... Hmmm.... just trying to think of the last time Officer bent down and looked at someones springs...lol... o well, I'll tell him he's dumb and doesnt know what he's talking about and that ride height is STOCK!!! lol
