2'' drop Belltech springs arrived today, opened box to look at and I did not see any marking for top and bottom. There does not seem to be any difference but before I install Sat is there a difference?
Springs usually come with a flat end, called closed end, and the other end is open end, as in not flat.
Set the spring on the floor, if it leans, the end sitting on the floor goes into the lower control arm.
The flat end goes up into the frame pocket.
Just did and feel stupid since. I opened them last night not so good light. Called them they said turn the spring where you can read the Company name and part number. That is top :clonk:
Well, at least you didn't install your sway bar upside down like the guy in the other thread, even though the Hotchkis sticker was right there upside down in plain sight....lol
You would think this would save them some phone calls. Hotchkis makes it worse by putting some abstract number that does not come close to their catalog part number. This leaves you wondering if you got the right part.
I wonder how many times the hung over factory worker puts the sticker on wrong !!! I would think there has to be a better way of telling. I work for Eaton Corp the worlds best truck transmission maker, and screw ups do happen .
If that happens and after the install there is going to be a hung over installer too
