To those that have the Ironman springs, did you install the d/s to our driver side (US driver side) and n/s to our passenger side (US passenger side)? Or it should be the opposite since its from australia? Thanks.
 
I installed mine DS drivers side and NS passenger. They are basically even. There is about an 1/8” difference from driver to passenger side height after install on my ‘93.

Yeah it looks even and I doubt that the spring rates are different between the 2. However, after digging through multiple threads, I found an answer before I read yours. I just finished installing. I did DS to USPS and NS to USDS. It looks pretty even. Lets see when it settles a bit. Hows yours? Still have the slight lean?
 
It does but I don’t really notice it. I found it was an 1/8” off when I was doing a lot of measurements trying to get my caster corrected.

I just installed an ironman 2” lift, D/S to driver side and N/S to passenger. I am low a little on driver. I am calling Ironman tomorrow for their answer, but anyone care to chime in? Is it reversed in the USA?
 
I just got off the phone with Ironman and I award their response zero points. Their answer:

“The correct method is to put the springs side by side and put the tallest on the side with the gas tank.”

What about following the specific written instructions supplied? Why are the springs even labeled? Their answer:

“We’ve seen situations where the springs are not labeled correctly so it’s best to just measure them.”

WTF. I am not a suspension specialist I can barely change my oil. It would have been good to know that on the front end when I had access to a rack and a full Saturday. Maybe just take the labels off and simply say that above? Just a thought.
