GRINGOTTY Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Hiya, Just replaced rear spring on my focus and now its standing 6" higher than the rear tyres and when I sit in the drivers seat I now fall forward onto the steering wheel. The car looks stupid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with a lift kit on a Ford! But seriously, springs do settle so they may drop a bit over a couple of days. Or the car may have been lowered previously and you've replaced the springs with standard ones... Or you've fitted the wrong ones altogether lol. 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doggsbody Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 @GRINGOTTY don't worry about it as Tomsfocus mentioned it's just settlement my mate replaced the complete rear of his 51 plate focus estate that he had before and it looked like an off roader at the rear about a week later it looked normal again 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevesixty7 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Yeah Zain, it's ruined. If a car could talk, "what the hell have you done to me?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
