does the taller spring go in the back or front?

There is a smaller spring and a longer spring.

Not sure which one goes on the back vs the front

wb123

for some reason my back end sags lower then the front.. and the right side rubs under hard left turns..

MPR

How much of a length difference are we talking about?

Did you maybe put them in wrong? (front in the back, back in the front)?

wb123

well thats what im trying to figure out..
do the long skinny springs go in the front or backs?

what spring has a stiffer spring rate the longer ones or the shorter ones?

MPR

Did the kit not come with any instructions/diagrams?

What car is this on? (year/model?)

wb123

92 to 95 civic
springs did not come with instructions... just had to visually match them to the stock ones...

MPR

If you matched them to the stock springs, I would guess you have them in the correct way. Did they come with height adjustable collars? If so, they should all be set to the same height. You may need to raise/lower the rear or front to achive the desired stance.

wb123

ya i put collars on both front and back

MPR

They may need to be adjusted...

wb123

got it all sorted out

Ah didn't see this earlier. The thicker spring goes on the front. The skinny spring goes on the back.
When a shop was installing my springs, they mixed them up, and my coupe sat on the tires in the front and back was 3"+ higher than stock.

MPR

What was it?

Raid3n

i think the taller spring will be for the back.

wb123

yea no one knows for sure lol
everyone is saying I think i think...

This isn't rocket science..

when you took the old springs out, which one was longer? Front or back? There's your answer.

FYI thick spring goes on the front, the longer spring goes on the back on most cars.

MPR

Several correct straight answers were given. Nobody said "I think".

You're right, that's why I said before if they matched them to the stock springs, it should be correct.

In our MR2 the stock springs were different in both length and width. The only visual difference with the race springs we put in was in the length, and it's only an inch or so.

D.T.P

The front ones are always thicker on fwd car since you have the engine sitting on that end. its as simple as that.

wb123

so it is normal for the front to sit a bit higher than the back (eg hatchback) when first installing the springs

D.T.P

my coupe always sagged a bit in the back. not much but a tad bit. i was on s-techs also.
