Basically asking if I will see the expected drop a little more over time or what I see is what I get. Have had them for 4 days now and it is lower, but not sure I'm seeing what the full drop should be, especially in the front.

Any feedback is appreciated.
Give it a week-ish

Then try not to drive too much especially if you know your alignment isn't that great

I got the alignment when I had the springs and other components installed.

Paid $300 for the camber arms and toe bolts, not including tax and labor. Got the parts and install done at Corner 3 Garage. Good guys there.
