so my mechanic installed the prokit on my 94 celica. for some reason the front springs are not staying set in the struts. when he turns the wheel, you can here the springs moving. this guy knows how to put springs in and he reinstalled the springs 3 times and he is getting the same result. i just bought new front and rear stock struts and i don't want to get new ones. any ideas or does eibach just not make a good spring.

My teins are doing the same thing. First make sure the arrows on the tops mounts and facing outwards. Also make sure the bearings inside the mounts are greased up..Before putting the whole strut/spring back on the car make sure the top mount/bearing assembly moves freely without binding up. Im going to have to take mine off again to check all of these. Im also going to put alittle grease on the first few top coils of the springs.
