Front spring problems......
I just replaced the front springs in my 89 Formula 350 with OEM ACDelco Part# 45H0154. I'm probably going to lower it in the future but I just wanted to get this thing back to stock for the time being.
Problem being is it now has an approach angle that would rival a Humvee.. The fender lip on the drivers side is 29 1/2" and passenger side is 28 1/2.
Is this going to settle out? As a side note I also replaced the lower control arm bushings with Energy Suspension polys and standard KYB struts.

Are they indexed properly between the two drain holes in the spring pocket?

They weren't indexed right, now its textbook, dead center between the holes, sway bar hooked up its a little better but still at 29" I think I'll put 100 miles on it and see before I get the eibach kit
