Just installed spring, Why is my car shaking?
So today i finished puttin on my KGMM springs. the ones that lower 1.5 inch. When i put the front springs on, i took the car for a ride and everything was perfect. Then i put the rear springs on and now i have a problem. eveything went in easy.
Now that i drive it, the car shakes when im on the throttle. I dont mean full throttle, when im even daily driving, the car vibrates ONLY when im on the throttle. When i let go, it stops shaking. Its horrible too, my mirrors outside the car shake like i got a system in the car.
Hypothesis
....I put the springs on wrong
....Camber is causing this
....All s2ks do that with lowering springs
i know
What do you guys think? My freind said that its deff the camber causing the vibrations. ALso, how do you know which springs are front and back. I put the taller springs in the back. Is that right?

mine just vibrates after 45mph and up, i think its my camber
You have changed the ride height and where the inner CV joint's tripod/rollers ride in the drive bucket. The vibration is from the Inner CV joints. You can raise the ride height back to stock with the stock springs, replace the inner CV joints or try a bucket swap side to side to eliminate the problem.

Can i just take the car to a shop and tell them to fix the camber and aligment? Would that fix the problem? I really dont have time this whole week to work on it.
