thanks.. i thought i was supposed to put the springs the same way they come out?(thats how i did the fronts).. whats the difference in the way the pigtails go anyway since u mention it?

there isn't a pocket for the pig tail in the rear like there is for the front springs, and they could vary well be like that to start with. If you don't do them pointing the drivers side, or at the rear of the control arm, then i would think the back would sit higher. I'm just telling you how it's supposed to go that's all.

yeah no problem. I don't remember how my stock springs were but I'd be interested to know if that's how the ones are that you take off. Also definitely post pics when it's done.
