Help for front and rear springs (1 Viewer)

[Rudical]

I bought this MAF Safari lift a few months back and I and finally have some time this weekend to work on it. MAF did not specify as to which spring is the front or rear. Does anyone have any clue?

It's been a while but I seem to remember the longer spring goes in the back.
Call MAF, you paid the big bucks to get a little customer service.

I guess you are saying it does not matter and I can switch them?

I don't know if I would call it big bucks but they are closed over the weekend and I was looking for some info to see if anyone knew about these springs because they don't come with instructions and I want to get something done this weekend. I put the longer springs on the front with no load on the front. (pic below) Caster angle looks bad, but when I push up on the spring the shackle moves towards the positive about one inch. For final with full load not sure yet how far yet. I guess I will find out when its all together.

I have the same kit. Mine also came with instructions. I will see if I still have those.

Well I did not need my instructions. As I was in the garage this morning drinking coffee I noticed the numbers still visible on the springs. 444414 are the rear springs, 444404 are the fronts. Good Luck, Dan.

Thanks Dan,

Thats the way I started just wanted some reassurance before I did the others.
