I'm going to start putting my frame together in the morning. I know the front coil springs have a top and bottom, but the rear coils look the same on both ends. Do they have a top and bottom, or deosn't matter how they are installed? The coil springs are 4" drop if it matters.

both pig tails. Just make sure to turn them to face the right direction cause sometimes the way they are sitting can sit one side of the truck higher then the other side but not so much. Just a note. Might want to replace the bolt while changing the springs out.

Thanks for the answer, and I have all new bolts to use.
