So, either both ways are fine, or one of you has them upside down

The reason I brought it up is because I have similar looking springs, where the lower coils are closer together than the higher ones and I installed mine according to the DIY above. Also, the ends are not exactly the same, since one end gets a rubber cap and the other end sits in a groove on a plate on the axle. One end brings the coil almost to a circle, while the other kind of ends open. So at least from a geometry perspective, it's not the same. But it might be just fine... I don't know... that's what I'm trying to figure out

I installed mine based on the instruction manual that came in the box from toyota. But now you got me wondering if i installed them right or not lol.



going by this picture for tannabe it looks like the tightly coiled are supose to be on top since thats how the label is printed on the coil.
