Rep Power: 311 Alot has to do with how your struts were re-assembled if you put in aftermarket springs. You may not have your upper mount, upper spring perch lined up correctly with the hole on the lower spring perch. Here's a couple of pics of what I mean. See the two triangles on the top parts? Those triangles must line up with the hole circled in red below.
Thats one way to do it. The other way is by using the yellow paint marks. Which is the correct way? Hell I dunno.. I tried both ways and each worked fine. Also remember to seat the spring in properly both on top and bottom and preload the suspension a couple of inches with a floor jack before tightening up the top mount nuts and lower knuckle bolts. If you dont your steering wheel might not be centered. At least thats what helped re-center mine. Good luck.
