The main question is what is consider the front of the leaf spring?
1. THe end with wrap all the way around?
2. The end with semi completed wrap?

I have a picture of one of the front springs laid out, should it be installed as laid out in the pic front (left) to back (right)?

And the kicker is since I went with a schakle reversal on the front does that mean I need to switch (or rotate) around the end that would normally be attached to the front (engine) and attach that to the new schakle that is now in the rear (of engine)? I hope that makes sense?


Same question for the rear, the spring end with the "0" (zero) should that be mounted to very rear or should it be mounted with the "0" end towards the front. (see Pic, do I have it right?

one end of the spring pack : outermost leaf ends in a eye

Other end of spring pack : outermost leaf wraps about 1/3 way around next leaf's eye. This end of spring goes on shackle.
