Hello,
I am swapping an IRS into my fox and all the online instructions say to mark the stock location and install your aftermarket springs. Well I just need to tell me wich way the pigtail points or a pic would be awesome. Thank you.

My IRS lower spring mounts had a bit of an indentation (low point) where the end of the pigtail seated. I believe it was directly outboard on both sides, which is different from my live axle cars (they always sit with the end of the pig tail directly in the rear.).

Here are the pics that MM sent me. Basically the tails end in the same place but come from opposite directions.
