I went yesturday to roll my fender's lips in and the guy told me that I have a Tokico drop kit on it. I do have Tokico Struts, but I have the stock springs on it. I did notice however, the front looks significantly lifted higher than the rear. The guy was the owner of East Coast Customs in Bronx,NY and told me that it could be that the struts that are placed in reverse order, meaning that the rear go in the front and the front in the rear. Should i switch the front to the back and vice-versa or buy new springs for the back so it can lift?

I have no clue. I bought the car two years ago. i took it to a friend of mine (mechanic) and he said the springs could be sagging, but since the guy at East Coast Customs told me that they could have been two different sizes, it has me thinking since I do not want to go off and buy $100 springs just for the back. I have 18" rims and the back only rubs when I bottom out. I have my fenders rolled. If needed, I can provide photos of the issue. It looks like an old school Oldsmobile with the front-end sky high and the rear-end dropped. Perhaps I can get it lifted some how, any ideas on how to do that other than buying new springs?
