Default Quick question on coilovers...

I have some Arospeed coilovers. Now, when it came in, there were no instructions included with it.

I can't figure out which springs go in the front, and which ones go in the rear. There are two springs that came with taller collars. And they were slightly thicker than the other two, which came with shorter collars.

So I'm guessing the thicker, longer collars go in the rear? And the shorter, thinner ones go in the front? Anyone know? Thanx.

The thicker, longer springs should go on the front because that is where more weight exists. Those springs have to hold up the engine.

Ok, thanx! Anyone familiar with these coilovers? I got the front two on, and they seem rather stiff.
