So I followed the GEGers advice and saved up for the best struts out there.. the Konis got them from Performamce Fords in Toronto about a few weeks ago.. So yesterday i was working while my mechanic was installing them for me.. when i get there he tells me the handling is awesome!! by then i start to get all happy but when i turned the corner and looked at it.. it looks like the rear suspension is broken the rear looks 2-3 inches lower than the front.. WTF!! people told me that the front of my car would drop with the struts.. anyways take a look at my new site i just made.. please give me advice, feedback, or anything helpfull i was told that the front would lower a bit but its the opposite... the car handles very well but it just doesnt look right.. http://members.cardomain.com/masterjuices p.s. Sorry about the dark pics i took them tonight, ill provide better ones tomorrow 98 silverfrost contour se duratec mtx eibach springs koni struts K&N P-Flow ford racing plug wires

The rear looks really low, but to compare you need to have a complete side daytime picture. WA 2 TUFF SVT 2000 Tropic Green SVT Born 1/28/2000-1975 out of 2150-only 207 made. Some new pics
