Well as I said, they are brand new springs. Did you ever notice that new cars and trucks sit a little higher. Springs do settle, they never ever grow. From day one, when they are in use, it is down hill. So for that reason, and also that the manufacturer knows that to get the typical vehicle to market, shipping is involved. By ship or by transport, vehicles are tied down extremely tight some times for a period of a couple of weeks. That is hard on springs. They never fully recover their length. And so it is with replacement springs. They are new. They need to be settled. The rear is up a little high. Perhaps I could find a couple of heavy weight girl friends I could drive around town in the back seat. That would help to settle those springs, probably a little faster then my 100 plus pounds in the trunk, but it will work. I think I will pass on the heavy weight girl friends and just stay with two bags of garden gravel.
