#19240, "I got my new springs!"


          

I got my new springs. They are Tanabe's and I have a quick question as to which go on the front and which go on the back. Two of the springs are fatter than the other two. I am guessing those go on the rear because they aren't droping as far or do they go on the front because there is more weight from the engine? Thanks

I just installed my Eibach Pro Kits a month ago, but I can't remember which springs went in the front and which went in the back. Just pull the first spring off and compare the spring sizes and you'll know which size goes where.

Well wouldn't they be different sizes than stock if you are using them to lower the car? Thanks for the help.

thicker bigger go in front cause of the weight of motor other go in rear...

post pics of the springs what did ya pay for them how much drop?

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.

They will probably be slightly shorter than the stock springs, but there will still be a bigger pair and a smaller pair.
