How long does it take to settle after lowering?
Today I finally lowered my car front and rear. On the rear i cut the bushings, and the leaf spring does not sit on the "A arm" anymore for some reason even though i've driven it around the block quite a few times. Also on the front, i've turned the bolts as much as possible, but for some reason the right side is about .5" lower then the left. Does the car need time to settle, or did i do something wrong? Thanks, Chris.

On the front, the spring is above the arm, and pressing down on it, it's not possible to have any gap on the front, other than the thickness of the bushing.
