Re: Ok guys what the hell is wrong here?

Yes, you have the right weight coils. And yes, MII coils have the flat end at the top and the free coil at the bottom.

Don't panic yet; you will be shocked at how much that front end drops when you add engine, transmission and front sheet metal. And after you drive it a few hundred miles it will drop even more. I'll bet mine dropped 6-7 inches total, from the a-arms being slammed against the stops to being perfectly level. Especially surprising was how much adding the front sheet metal lowered the ride height - maybe 2 inches. I didn't think it would make that much difference.

And if it's still not low enough just start whacking coils.
