DIY Lowering springs help!
So I installed Tanabe DF210 springs in my GE8 about 3 months ago and the front looks great but the rear seems really high does anyone have any clue why that is? it only seemed to have settled a bit, I'll post pics in the morning

Check and make sure the rear springs are seated in the cups right. There is a groove that the bottom that the final wind is supposed to sit in. Springs aren't upside-down or anything? Maybe a dumb question but i've seen stranger mistakes than that
I don't see any pics online that show a noticeable rake with those springs, so i'd double check your work. Maybe even just take them out and put them back in again since it's a pretty easy task.

I don't mean to grave dig.... but I didn't feel as if starting another thread on this situation would really help. I'm having the same issue also but it seems as if he didn't get the answer he was looking for. Front is perfect but rears look raised lol

this might be silly and I dont recall too much from when I lowered mine a few years ago but....
arent springs specific to the front and back? [perhaps the fronts were installed in the rear and since they are meant to handle more weight, will raise the rear while the fronts will go lower than than what the springs are spec'd for.
I know once I finished the rear was slightly higher than the front, but I was ok with that since I load the back up for work and stuff....it ultimately settled in the near 100k I put on them.
Good luck...
