Quote: Ya, I am. Before I got some info from you, I had emailed JIC and asked about the availability of the FLT-TAR's since you had them installed for quite some time without any problems. Steven got in touch with me, and the ball rolled from there.

I got them set on 10 right now, but I'm thinking 7-8 may be perfect for daily driving, especially on the crappy roads we have here.

Thanks again for your help btw
NP! Have fun with the new toy!

I just figured out that the rear springs sit differently from mine. I'm gonna have to take some pix from mine and post it up here as a comparison. I'll try to post some up tomorrow.

The "cup" (where you adjust the height) is on the top with my setup and the rubber piece sits on the bottom.

Yup! That's it! Are you running the same setup as mine or the other way around?

Oh and also, can I ask you a favor?

When you have time or when you adjust the coil in the future, can you take the rear spring out and measure the length of it? I'd like to know how much of differences are there between the production version spring and the prototype spring.

Last question, what are your spring rates front and rear?

No, that's the way I have it and that's the correct orientation. My DIY post has both pics, with each labeled "correct" and "incorrect" for reference.

I initially had it installed wrong because we called JIC and they gave us the wrong information. My friend's done a crapload of installs, and even said he knows it (the aluminum cup) went on the top, but went ahead and installed it on the bottom the first time per JIC's instructions (doofus'). Shane pointed it out to me and we corrected it the next day.
