I started working on the front end of my car yesterday, and by the time i lost the light i had just got the spring out. My question is, which side of the eibach spring goes in the lca? Because there is a flat side and the regular wound spring side, as opposed to the original spring which has both ends just wound.

thanks in advance, also I can't wait to get this done because i did the back end up two weeks ago, and just like the back, the front was just riding on the springs because the struts were completely shot just like the shocks were and I am impressed with the difference the tokicos made in the back so i can't wait to get the front end buttoned up.

 

Flat on top with isolator, other end on bottom. Make SURE you get them indexed correctly or your front end will sit way too high.

Look at my pics here along with a full explanation:

thanks a million! that was awesome, very helpfull! Nice car and nice install.

 

It's very very simple, install the spring where you can read the words, and they are right side up. And don't forget to index them...

 

when you say indexing, do you mean where you say to line up the end of the coil between the two holes? i hope thats what ya mean, cuz thats what i did back when i installed them.

 

Yes. The end of the coil needs to be right between those 2 holes...I call it the "taint" area on the LCA.

Cinder blocks holding up the car... not a good idea. Get some jackstands

 

Been discussed before.....
