I hope you know which springs are the fronts and which are the rears.

The previous ownder might have gotten a different spring rate for the fronts and rears?
thanx a lot qt but how do you tell the spring rate?
I really can't recall. Mine have been off for about 1 yr already. You should ask the person who you bought them from. He/she might be able to direct you to which one is which.

I know there were some #'s written on the spring itself, and that distinguished which was what. But off bat I can't really help you with that. Plus I think the fronts and rears were the same height? I think maybe the skinnier ones are the rears?
But don't quote me on that.
The springs will be the same diameter, but it is important to make sure the ones with the stiffer spring rate go on the front. Take the numbers off the springs and call ground control. They are very helpful and don't mind answering questions.
ok guys i have two springs that say 44/99 64.66 and the other two springs are 41/99 64.53... do any of you guys have the number to ground controll?
i think 64.66 are the fronts, and 64.53 are the rears. thats what my box says.
