Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications General Mods Settle time new struts and springs?

Just had new yellow koni's and H&R's installed. How long should the springs be allowed to settle before I do a four corner alignment?

NOW!!!!!!

i installed h&r's and had alignment done at same time, but then 2 months later i noticed severe inside tire wear. i would suggest giving the springs about a month to settle. also my tecnician told me ford spec for our cars call for a little negative camber, but with the car lowered and the control arms all the way in, theres still a little too much negative camber. so, rotate tires regularly to avoid uneven wear!(damn negative camber!!!!)

I decided to take advantage of firestones "lifetime 4-wheel alignment" deal. I can't even begin to tell you how much better my car handles with the koni's and H&R's. No more see/saw motion during gear shifting and handles like a go-cart. Firm yet compliant.
Best mod I've done yet.
