Clive Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 there is a front and back. If you can tell which is which well done, but it really doesn't matter :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drofgum Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Oh come now, the front is the side nearer when you are sitting in the seat driving the car ;DPaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocita Rosso Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 The original workshop manual says" the spring is marked front for correct location". However I have never seen any markings on modern day springsThe photo in the book shows the nuts on the leaf clamps to be at the front, but seeing as the clamps are able to be reversed I cant see how that makes a difference Factor 30...slap it on!

TimW Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 My original spring has an aluminium tag on the clamp nut with "FRONT" stamped into it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
