problems with eibach lowering springs - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just installed a set of eibach lowering springs on my 2013 v6 camaro. Install went really well but the front shocks arent sitting right. Under the hood on the single screw the bolt/washer sits higher than it did causing the top bolt and washer to be approximately 1/4 inch higher. In other words the top bolt and washer do not hold the shock in place and if i drive it it seems like it would bounce around. They were tourqued down to spec and was told i do not need to trim the bushings or anything for this install. Anyone have any ideas? I will try to get pictures later this afternoon once I get back home

It seemed like it was tight on it when i first took it off.... I figured like that the spring would bounce around going over a good bump or two?
