coilover Owners

I own ground control sleeved coilovers. Does anyone else own Ground Control coilovers. Does anyone know within that set which springs go in the front and which go in the rear.? Same for the sleeves in that set.? This will be my third try(attempt) at the install, and my last option now is to place the smaller springs on the longer sleeves in the front and the larger springs on the shorter sleeves in the rear. Any help would be appreciated

The taller set goes in front (sleeves, too) and the smaller pair goes in the rear.

Dude,

That is the set up I used on my second attempt. And I'm thinking, keep the longer sleeves in the front and the shorter sleeves in the rear. AS you said. And, maybe put the shorter springs in the front and the longer ones in the rear. Being that the larger ones will have less of a spring rate and vice versa. Any thoughts? This really has me stumped and is costing lots of time and money. Thanks Dudes.

If you can take the struts off your car by yourself, it's really easy to do. Save yourself some $.
