New UMI K Member now car sits high
I installed a new UMI K Member on the frount of my car over the last weekend and now it is sitting very high in the front. Is there a way to adjust it?? I did not torque anything down until the car was on the ground. Am I missing something???? Any help would be great.

You save a total of about 25 pounds going to a k member. That's less then pulling your battery out. Notice a ride height difference from 30lbs? Don't think so.

I am still using the same springd that I was running with the factory K Member. When I installed it I just hand tighted everything then lowered the car back to the ground and then tightened everything down once it was loaded with wieght.

Sometimes when lifting cars and setting them back down it binds the suspension and they sit high. After you get the car rolling it flattens back out and goes back to normal.
