OEM Spring Question which is which ?

[aggiepaintrain]

How can you tell which factory FJ80 springs came from the front or rear ?
Assuming you forgot to tell the mechanic to label the boxes.
I've heard conflicting opinions and hope someone on here knows for sure.

Are you asking how to tell the front springs from the rear springs?

 

[aggiepaintrain]

yes

 

[duggy]

Front springs are skinnier/taller and the rear springs are fatter/wider

 

[aggiepaintrain]

thanks

Problem solved. Fatter and wider in the rear...

No. I can't.

the left and right springs are different as well. You can tell once they are installed because the truck will lean to one side if they are not installed on the correct sides
