Attention All BC Racing Coilover Guys, Check your Rears--Possible Install Error...

Check your Rear Springs... the Guy from BC is saying that the below pictures are correct...










heres mine





INCORRECT...



I dont know how safe this is... or if the springs are hurt in any way but you need to check this and make sure...

I know this is going to suck to for me.... because I have to drive 2.5 hrs and then I have to REPAY for an alignment "if" they were installed upside down...


Oh well please post here if yours are upside down...

Thanks...

That is weird. I have mine installed like the first picture, but Pete said that was wrong. And now Danny from BC is saying its right? Pete and Danny are both giving opposite instructions.
