I installed the eibach drop spring kit in my cutlass. Now I noticed that the front sits higher about 3/4 inch. So wondering if there is a correct way to install the rear springs?

if you measure the height of the frame to the ground I think you'll find the car is level. The shape of the wheel opening gives the impression that the rear is lower. I had the same thoughts when I used the eibach springs

Ah your correct sir thanks! What did you do to correct the look. I was thinking maybe air shocks. My 87 442 had air shocks that I used to correct the ride height.
 
I changed the eibach springs for moog and my front end is slightly lower than the rear which evens out the look of the car..
