Thanks Raf.

It looks like the car is a little lower on the front drivers side. This has me puzzled since it's a pretty straight forward install.

Only thing I can think of is that the upper control arm needs to be loosened and then retightened at a different position.

If anyone sees anything that they feel is important to point out, feel free to do so. Thanks.

This suspension restoration has been excellent! I hope it rides like new now.

Thanks for your help along the way SSMAccord, I appreciate it. It does ride nice. I may need to make a few adjustments but it definitely rides better than before.

I was looking at the photos and I noticed, how funny is it that I finished this upgrade in October, and the springs and shocks look like a pumpkin. lol

Couple other things... The front dust boots were way too large, I had to trim them down and unfortunately my exacto knife skills were a little lacking, so the trimmed portion is kind of jagged, as seen in one of the photos. If I had to do it over again I would have bought two rear sets of dust boots because the rears seem like they would have fit the front much better.

I also probably should have trimmed the front bump stops, maybe take a quarter inch off but I left them as is. We'll see how long they hold up. lol

The axle boots are not torn nor are they clicking, so I left the original axles for now.

And leave it to my luck to go to the park for a photo shoot only to not notice I had parked in a spot with a big oil stain. lol (doh). The car leaks zero fluids, the oil pan gasket was redone last year when the timing belt and water pump were replaced (with OEM parts at the dealer).

So yeah, I'm happy it's done for now, and I'm sure my brother is happy to have his Accord back in service.
