Default instaling Stechs... which springs in front? longer or shorter?

well in just a few mins.... ill start pullen my stock struts and springs off to replace them with my blue struts and springs.......

BUT kinda crapy how it doesnt say which ones front or rear..

and ones got a regularly would coil and the other looks like a coil thats been cut...
i guess after i pull the stockers i should be able to tell BUT just to be safe... thought id ask!
nothing worse than swapen em and finding out i did it backwards. and then have to do it all over again!

ok never mind..............
i got one side just about done...
just have to buy some new bolts tomorow after work and then finish the drivers side... then ill start on the passenger side..

so far my only problem has been that freaken front spring and the compressor!!!!! but i did get it finaly! rear is super easy!

i havent busted any bolts tho cause i soaked them the last 2 days afew times... BUT the one bolt doesnt look to preaty... so might as well just replace all 4 and be satisfied!
