One question---the leafspring perches (mounts) in the back--if you wrenched those down so tight that they locked the leafsprings into their highest possible position when you installed them--(perches would be angled pretty extreme --pointing rearward towards rear of the car), maybe it's possible that you have brought the spring up to its highest possible spot and the mounts back there are holding them in that position. You probably know this already, but they should be able to move. Just a thought, and probably not, but thought I would ask. I had something similar happen on mine once---let us know the outcome!

Doug I know what you mean but the whole suspension on the car is all lubed and slacked off so everything can move freely for mocking up.I am going to call DSE today and hopefully they can straighten this mess out.
