Does anyone know if there is a difference between the top and bottom, left and right, rubber coil spring silencers on the front of our cars. For some reason my car only had 3, so I dont even trust they are in the proper place (if there is a proper place). I checked them over for any markings but can't seem to find any.

If there is no difference does anyone have an extra one laying around they don't need? I know this should be in the parts wanted section, but i wanted to ask the question if they are specific to top / bottom, left / right, etc before I just buy one.

Thanks!

There are spring insulators on the top of both springs, but that's it--and they're the same.

on the front there should be a 1/4" rubber ring that goes between the spring and the chasis, each side. On the rear there should be one of theese above the spring and between the chasis, on each side

Yeah, that is exactly what it is. Sorry, I didn't really know how to explain what it was and I guess I didn't do a good job at all.

So it appears they are both the same, top and bottom... Now to find one... does anyone have an extra?

There is only top, no bottom, all the way around, for a total of 4. The fronts and rears are different.
