Hey guys, I just installed a set of lowering springs on my DC2. The front dropped perfectly and the rear did not drop at all. OK, this is not my first time installing springs and struts. I did my EG two years ago.

I am afraid of the possibility that I put the rear springs on the front strut and the front springs on the rear strut.

I put some generic springs on off of egay, it was stated to give me a 2'' drop.

When I received the springs a pair were larger and bigger. Are those supposed to go on the front or on the rear??? I thought the smaller pair went on the front and the larger ones went on the rear.

LOL
Help me guys, I am a retard, didn't take my fish oil that day.

 

BUMP!!!

Hook it up guys

 

Thats usually correct the longer set go in the rear.

 

OK, I just heard from another guy that the longer set goes in the front. I looked it up through the search feature. Thanks for the advice.


Anybody else, have any advice???

 

Like I said I have done this before, I did match up the springs. I am asking for advice, or proven facts. What I don't need is negative remarks. I am asking for help. If you cannot help, then don't bother replying.

Keep your smart *** remarks to yourself!

 

Does anybody else have an constructive advice, I don't want to hear how stupid I am, I already know this, that is the reason why I am asking for help.

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you

You really have no reason to even be in here,
And for being an 02 you should of known better.


OP, you'll definitely regret going with cheap springs later on, But,
Larger/longer goes in the front, with shorter/smaller in the back.

So you were right with what you came up on your search.

 

Thank you so much for your advice! finally a good answer, thank you I appreciate it a lot

 

and why do i have no reason to be in here exactly? I know how to do it, he boasts about how he is a balla and knows what he is doing.
I told him how to check it, stupid point deduction for doing nothing, i dont see half the members getting points deducted for the crap they say

 

There was no mention of being a "balla" in this thread,
and he said he changed springs 2 years ago, not that he was an expert.

But if you got some beef with this guy, take it to PM,
there is no need to insult/flame in any thread he makes, if That's the case.

 

The longer/bigger springs go in the front to compensate for the engine weight.
