Rep Power: 0 Yeah I saw that already, but I need to know if the shorter one goes on the front or the back. Like I need directions for Skunk2 Coilovers. Thanks

Rep Power: 309 shorter springs go on front. i believe skunk2 only gives u 2 of those top mount metal plates, those go on top of the front shorter springs as well.
front = shorter springs, top mount plates, and perch itself
rear = taller springs and perch itself.
skunk2 drops from .5-3" i think. i had mine fronts so theres 8 threads up front starting from the top & 5 threads on the rears starting from bottom.
expect grinding/rubbing/clanking metal rubbing noise on the fronts. once installed when you steer, your gonna hear metal on metal rubbing type of noise which can disturb you. simple solution is to grease the top mount plates on the fronts, on top of springs, and bottom of springs. DO NOT GREASE THE PERCH AS THEY WILL HAVE AN EVEN EASIER TIME TO MOVE LEFT AND RIGHT THUS CAUSING IT TO ADJUST ITSELF (i had bad expierence )
hope that helps
