Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

        Or maybe you installed the spring the wrong way..such as backs in the front and fronts in the back? How bad is it? It could also be because its not settled as mentioned.

          after i installed the springs and shocks, the front has only droppet a few mm.
          And the rear turned out pretty nice. but the front looks like the original.
          But i can get some pics of it.

            Take some pics! If we could see what it looks like, we could offer you better advice. To me, it does not sound like the springs are waiting to settle. I mean, a few mm is crazy. Something must have gone wrong in the install. Post pics though!

                  and it does sound like it needs to settle. mine took about 1-2 months to settle. it looked like stock when i has finished installing them.

                      hmm, yea. that definitely needs to settle.

                      but just to make sure, did you put the big, fatter springs in the rear and the skinnier ones in the front?

                        What koni shocks are you using? Koni yellows? Try setting them on the lowest perch, as koni yellows can a height adjusting perch.

                          Yes,i did put the big ones in the rear and the smaller ones in the front.
                          But if you turn the rear springs the other way,could that be the problem?
                          i am sure that the H&R writings on the spring, was the right way.

                              spring rate for the front springs is generally higher, so it needs more time to settle. evne afte rmine settled, i still hated the level stance, i like the sport rake, so i put some spring spacers in there, and that evened it up some
