Heaviest goes front

Attempting is not an option, cause when your stock ones are off and you could nt install eibachs..............you re screw.
Back is real easy. can do it alone in 45 minutes. Front, is a bit tricky but i did mine with help of my brother in 2 hours.

Good luck

no i know left and right down matter but front and back do!!! do the short ones go on the back?

the spring with the thicker coil goes in the front, smaller coil wire spring in the back.

Impossible to mix them up.... Biggest coil are made for heavier weight so they will go up front... If you remove one you'll see...You're sure you want to do it yourself..

oh guys you know what..i just realized that i was a complete idiot for asking this question and it was all figured out with common sense. Well im happy to report that iam done with the rears and will tackle the task of the fronts tomorrow with the help of a friend. thanks for all your help guys your the best

Cool ! You got the back in..

If you want you can read this ! Springs installation instruction


Link if from a moderator's web site !

Cool, the rears are a lot easier than the front, but it is still easy. Are you using the pro kit or sportline? Since you are going to need to get it all aligned I would suggest installing a set of offset steering rack bushings to help with your bumpsteer they are only like 15 bucks. Just my .02

one question guys...the backs are in! but i set the bottom pigtails of the new springs the exact same way the old ones were facing. Is that the right way to do it because the directions that came with the spring tells me to set them a different way which one should i do? I have always been told that u make sure the bottom pigtails are facing the same exact way as they were before

 

[Modular2v]

im using the pro kit by the way! i forget what is different about the sportlines?

The pigtails should both be pointing directly toward the drivers side of the car if I remember correctly. Some correct me if i am wrong?
