Default HELP!!!! I only have one spring on!!

Can anyone help me out. I started installing my springs yesterday and everything was going fine but my breaker Bar broke ( No Pun Intended). It was the only 1/2 inch drive I had and I couldn't go any further with my install. Now my car has only one tein H tech spring installed and the rest are all stock. It's sitting in my garage on jackstands. I have not been driving it around but is it bad that there is only one spring on the car? What I mean is will it settle incorrectly if one spring is installed earlier than the rest? I am hopefully going to finish it tomorrow because My Air compressor should be fixed by then!!

they should all settle eventually so you should be fine.

Take it off of the stands and drive on it. If anything it will cause nominal alignment problems and those problems will be taken care of when you take your car into Les Swhab or whatever tire place you take your car, when you get your tires alignment down.

PS you need tire alignment because of new springs after the install (3 weeks after). Wait this long so that the springs have a time to sit.

Thanks I will I was actually going to wait till my tires wore out because I am still riding on crappy stocker yokohama all season junk so I figured it was about time to replace them anyway. So I shouldn't have any long term problems with the springs because I didn't install them asap???
