ok so i think i fugured out wut was wrong....first of all, the guy i paid to do it used an impact gun, so he made it too toght and so messed up the bearings that go on top of the stock plate. another bonus is that he put one of the springs on upside down, and im guessing thats no good, especially for progressive springs....so, imma buy some bearings n get that fixed. also, im removing the stock plate (big black one) and just leaving the aluminim tophats that came with the kit. thx everyone who replied and sry for bein such a noob. lol. i learn a lot here tho so thx again.
