Yesterday, i took the isos out my front springs to lower them a bit, and i think I put the passenger side in wrong, its a lil higher than the other side and the car just feels different. Which way is the spring supposed to be?

the ends of the springs ( The very bottom where the spring ends) should both be facing in the same direction. such as both in the 3,6,9, 12 oclock position. I dont know if it really matters in what direction but I did read somewhere that it was suppose to be the 9 oclock position.

Since you're talking about the front springs they're supposed to sit with the pig tail in the perch so that just one of the two holes is covered. For the rear springs both pig tails should be pointing towards the drivers side.

Ok and just making sure when you say pigtail, you're referring to the end of the spring.

yes thats the end of the spring. I was thinking in terms of the rear springs btw just so you know. Not sure if it really matters though
