not the springs, the perches.... but i have nto had that particular model apart. Many can go in "wrong" and still go together. That tales them from convex to concave - and about 1" difference. Ergo my comment

I took everything apart again and discovered that everything was installed correctly the first time. I have no explaination for the discrepancy in height. Additionally I discovered the right side is about a half inch higher than the left. Against my better judgement I broke out the cutoff wheel and removed half a coil from both springs. The left side now seems good and the right side still a little too high. Pictures to follow.

Ever get some pics together? I'm interested in having a slight rake by using eibach pro feathers just on the front. Eliminate some front wheel well gap and improve handling maybe. Also, did you bother with adjustable uppers?

Thanks for all the replies. I definitely will let it settle in a little before doing any cutting. This is the first time I've installed the Eibachs on a quattro car. Definitely more challenging in the rear, but I was curious about what I could have done that would have been incorrect on the install that would have kept the rear end raised up a little. Is there some detail I am unaware of? Thanks
