Hi All, recently had Munroe Struts put on my 2002 bird. I was getting some good bounce after driving over bumps etc. The Struts seem to solve the problem but I am still scraping something underneath going over dips in highway? Had a look under the car but nothing obvious scrapping. I'm thinking now its the tire hitting inside of well as I do see some lines that look somewhat like tires treads? The car center wheel well ride height seats at 27" from ground. i Have inlcuded a picture of my black bird with a mint green bird behind it. You can notice the ride height difference significant. Anyone run into the same scenario as mine?

You can omit the make/model from your titles on future posts since we are a Ford Thunderbird club. Title revised.

What the the strut installer have to say? Have all your suspension components been inspected?
