Help doing FJ springs shocks today cant tell R/L ?!!!

[bulldogtaxi]

it realy doesn't matter, I had no idea they were different and my runner sits just fine. I have never bought a set of springs that were specific to a side of the vehicle.

I disagree. Maybe you just got lucky, but it DOES make a difference, and I found that out the hard way. I installed mine without knowing there was a difference, and just my luck I did it backwards. There was a definite lean, and after measuring it was something like 3/4 inch difference from one side to the other. After some research and finding out I had them swapped, I had to swap them, and now I measure within 1/8" between the two sides. 3/4" lean may not matter to you, but it sure as heck was noticeable on mine. If you're gonna take the time to do it, you might as well do it right.

Thought I'd try to put this to rest. Saw an FJ when I was returning a rental from a business trip and thought i'd stick my phone under and take a pic.

This is the spring on the drivers side...
