Default strut/ spring help

Installed new lowering springs, struts, bushings, mounts, everything brand new. After a day of driving the front struts are not centered in their mounts. Both struts tilt to the center (inside) of the car. Everything is tight, nothing loose. I can hear the strut rod making contact with the mount. HELP! Springs are Skunk2, 2" drop, struts are Truhart.

I've moved this to General Tech - please read the posting rules/stickies of the DIY section.

i know that sometimes if you tighten certain components of the suspension it can actually damage the suspension...some parts should allow some movement for the struts and springs to work properly...another thing is that it may possibly be to much of a drop for the body you have. i wouldnt want to drop my 95 2" with just lowering springs...but coilovers and i am fine with 2"
