Celicas have weight distribution of about 65F/35R. Having the suspension higher in the back on FWD cars is good. read this http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?act=ST...t=0#entry447320 to find out why.

sorry man I must have misunderstood something. Maybe you should try just reinstalling them and be very careful with every step. I wonder if anyone else has had problems like this before?
