Default Did I just get the wrong springs?

I recieved my coilover-kit from ground control just now, and I have three different model# springs. I have one pair, that had the short pair of sleeves in them, that says 78713 next to the Eibach on the spring. The other two springs are the same length and turn counts, but one has 78701 on it and the other 72719. Are they different springs rates?

Also, is the black part inside the sleeve the Koni adapter or is it a seperate piece? I slid it onto a pair of Konis I got and it wobbled a littled? And what are the two pieces of black rubber in the kit, they're stamped with Ground Control M02770 and I only have the two, do I need four? Did I get shafted? I'm new to coilovers and wondering if I got the right parts.

Why don't you just call Ground Control and get the 411? I'm sure they'll know exactly what those #'s mean, and also what the other hardware is for.

look at the spring and two of the springs should have .6 or .8 or something at the end of the # sequence. Mine had .6 on two of them which are 300lb springs and .8 on the other two which are 400 lb springs.

Whew, UPS came back with instructions that fell out, Ground Control packaged 2 konis, springs, coilovers, and swaybar set all in the swaybar box, jeese. At least now I know what the rubber pieces are for, rear rubber insulators.
The same model no. pair springs have .44 at the end and and the odd pair have .58 at the end. Would those be 220lb/290lb or 200lb/400lb?
