new rear coils install help
 
3 Attachment(s)
I am installing new trailing arms/ springs and bushings in the rear of my 72 C-10 , in my chevy manual is shows that the end of the coils need to be locked into the tabs on the spring cups.

but the way the cups are orientated to fit in the end of the coil spring i do not see how that is possible and are the cups made different for each side, i ordered 4 and they are all the same?

See pics

the first is the bottom of the coil spring and the other two pics are of the top end of the coil spring , see the tab and the end of the spring.. is this crucial or can i run them as is???

I would rotate the cups as far counterclockwise as they will go and call it good
