which coilover is passanger & driver

I just purchased a set of stock coilovers for my 06 prerunner with spacers already installed, my question is is there a difference betwen the drivers side and passenger side coilovers, and if so how can I tell the difference?

 

Well...the previous generation trucks were different. But I'm not sure about the new trucks.

The previous generation trucks - the drivers side coil had an additional winding.

Count the 'windings' on the coils and see if they're the same or not. If one is longer - and if I had to guess - it's probably the drivers side.

 

are the windings the loops in the springs?

 

Yes.... Pick a spot and use the same spot for both - count the windings.

 

thanks guys hopefully the install will go smooth

 

one more question, do i need a tourqe wrench to tighten the bolts back or should i just get them as tight as i can?

 

I guess this means you got them?

 

yes i got the coilovers, they have the same number of windings, one has blue & white paint and the other has green & gray anyone know which is driver and passanger

 

There from my 07

 

here is the pic hope it helps

 

thanks chris i'll give it a shot, only one way to find out

 

you know...........i feel like an idiot now!!! when me and tigerfan took my coils out to replace the shocks(put in billy 5100's), we didnt even pay attention to which was which. i could have possibly put the wrong sides on................but the truck looks pretty level to me. is it gonna cause any harm if they are wrong??

 

ok, cool. if i notice it starting to sag.....i'll change them around!! thanks chris!!

 

Wow, I never notice that
