Haha, thanks for the garage comments. I HIGHLY recommend epoxying your floors.
On another note, my fronts seem to be making a clicking noise when i go in and out of my driveway. Is this normal is there an issue. Who knows maybe the alignment will take that noise away. Oh and my toe is way off.

Friendly advice; don't get to **** about the ride height yet...
Let them settle for a few weeks first, then get them "perfect".
I spent hours making them sit just right, then they settled and I had to do it all over again.

Yes, you did. You're right, they are supposed to look mostly horizontal.
No worries, though. Just try switching the fronts.

Should be fine, but they are prob clicking because you do not have the collar tight enough. You have to really hammer that sucker down! Don't be shy about it, take a srew driver and a hammer right to the collar.

The Collar (ring) that spins down to keep the lower mount in place.
