Help!!! Eibach Sportlines install!!!
 

I just finished putting the right rear spring in and after tightening the top bolt and putting in the bottom two 17mm strut bolts, there is a lot of play in the spring. I mean it's loose. I thought after I tightened everything it would get snug in there. Did I miss something? I thought I tightened the top bolt as much as possible. Is it possoble that it should keep going? Or is this normal to have that movement in the spring until you let the car down. Someone please help. I don't know if this is normal.

PS. I haven't done the left one yet and I am also not a pro at this.

The rear struts on our cars don't have enough threads to fully tighten down the spring plate when a lowering spring is used. On the Sportline kit, the problem will be even worse since the spring is even shorter than the ProKit. Best bet is to use a couple of thick washers on top of the spring plate, then put the nut on and tighten it down. If you don't do this you'll probably wind up with a clunking noise in the rear when going over bumpy roads.
