Default if the front springs aren't seated right...

will there be any funny noises or a way to tell. I have the Tanabe NF210's (1.7" drop in front, 1.2" drop in rear) and the front isn't coming down like it should. if the springs are not in right would that cause it not to sit like it should? they have been on for about 2 months now. by the way the rear sits perfectly.

Double check the install, you may have the upper plates not lined up properly. I had one of mine slip out of alignment when I was tightening the nut on the end of the shock and I installed it without checking. The result was the effected wheel being tilted in slightly and my steering wheel was off center like an old hoopty needing an alignment. I just removed the shocks to double check and corrected my mistake. Afterwards the wheel and steering wheel was back to normal.

Check out the spring install on the xB in the tech section for help.
