#202787 Bought some Skunk2 springs around 2 months ago. Hopefully the longer ones went up front..because there is still a little play in the rear struts/spring when assembled..is this normal? Also, on the springs themselves...what side is up and which is bottom? When I go over bumps, the rear makes a noise like the springs are too short for the rear struts. I've heard that the part numbers on the springs in front go upside down, and on the rear, they read normal. Any help or pics would be great. Thanks. :?

#202852 Taller ones with more coils go up front. and like hatchie said, they dont go in any specific way (no side is specified to go up or down)


If you installed them wrong you'd know. The front would be slammed and the rear would be uber high still.

#202853 The noise in the rear MAY be a blown strut/struts.
