Default skunk 2

whats up, I just got a set of skunk 2 drop springs for my crx si. I was looking at the springs and their is a long narrow set, which I think is for the back and a wide shorter set, which i think is for the front. Does anyone know the way they go on? Or did I guess right?

wide ones = front
skinny ones = back

this is easily solved if you look at what you took off originally.

insted of being gay, i am going to tell you the answer.

the fat ones go in the rear and the skinny one goe on the front.

i just went through this myself, if you put them in the wrong way the front will be mad low and the back mad high. plus, when you try to put the fat ones in the front, its a real tight fit, so you should know something is wrong

my car came with some ebay coilover springs, just the springs, and all 4 looked the same. so telling someone to look at there stock springsa dont always help. if your not going to be helpful, whats the point of saying anything at all. before i found out the hard way i searched for the answer to this and all i found was a bunch of threads where a bunch of **** told people to search and other smart *** remarks. since i posted the pics and gave correct answers in 3 different threads, i had had at least 10 people either reply or pm me to say thanks for helping out.
