Longer springs go on the back, that should do the trick  :wink:

if youve still got them in the box'es then look at the part numbers and cross refere with the paddocks site

if youve opened them, then i believe the rears will have a slightly heavier gauge/cross section

as i remember they about the same height

good luck

yust to warn you when fitting the fronts, be prepared for the bolts on the shock absorber turret securing rings to snap.......

no you dont

the front springs cant go anywhere due to the inherant design with the shocks passing through the centre of the springs,ive yet to see a use for front disclocation/relocation cones
