? about the PP lower springs

I installed the PP lowering springs, Bilstein shocks, and Addco's on Saturday. Remember I have a 2WD so I cut one coil off the front spring. This worked out great. The height looks good and cutting one coil didn't hurt the ride comfort either. My problem is the back didn't seem to lower any. It almost looks as though it's higher then before. I'm stuck at home for a few days do to surgery but, I'll get a pick up asap.

Thanks,
John

I don't know if I told you or someone else asked before, the PP 1" drop is for a 4WD which has a taller spring than the 2WD. That's why you see no difference, the 2WD sits 1" lower to begin with. I don't know why PP sold those to you knowing you had a 2WD, makes no sense. The good thing is, those are progressive rated springs which should be a lot better than stock.

I was told that the front springs on a 4X4 sit 1 inch higher but not the rear. Thats why I cut one coil off the front springs. My question is for the rear springs. Thanks for your help.
