Springs Mounted Opposite - silverzx - 15-07-2014
Does it matter which way springs are mounted into the strut?
I'm fairly certain the GTi6 springs/shocks/mounts I bought off Zak are mounted the opposite way on each strut.
Here's a diagram to explain what I mean:

Not sure but i always put tight coil down??

The left side is correct iirc. The large coil sits in the bottom of the strut and the small one to the strut top.

306 springs aren't tapered on one end, just flat with the same size half coil on each end, as long as they're seated in the cups correctly its fine
