Just got my suspension done....few q's

for my 94 gen3 v6
Got the tokico / dropzone setup
Just got a few questions though for you guys who has had the same setup

1) How much of a drop was it?

Cause mine has barely half a pinky worth of space between the well and the wheel

2) When you drove it right after the drop, when you turned your steering wheel, did you hear your springs?

Cause one of mine did and the guy said it needs to just set in


Just want to know if its normal cause if they put the springs on upside down or something...ill be sooo pissed

get your ocillator bearings checked my mechanic told me thats what that spring noise is, is your occilator bearings going out supposedly theyre supposed to be replace like ever 75k miles or something like that cuz the bearings get crusty and thats what u hear a spring like noise. its a bearing what allows the front steering wheels to turn while on suspension.
