Default [need Help] Kyb Shocks Too High In Front

Just Installed Kyb Shocks All Around. Before Instaliing The Schocks The Front Measurement Was At 27-1/4 And Rear 28-1/4. Afer Installing The New Kyb's On The Car My Measurements Are 28 In Front And 28-3/16 In Rear . I Drove The Car Afer I Was Finished To Let Everything Go Back To Normal. What Would Make The Front Go Up 3/4. Dont Have Much Choice About Installing Lowering Kit On Front. Is It Something I Did Or Is It The Schocks. Thanks

I put the KYB's on my '88 and they temporaily raised the car up. After a couple hundred miles (or less) they should settle down to a normal ride height.

Give it some time. They'll drop back to normal in a few weeks.

Old post OP, but did the shocks eventually settle down as predicted?
