    They are technically not side specific , you can have a - - pack , or a 0 0 pack or a + + pack without any issue , unlike the 1st gens which are side specific

    If you get a mixed set , - 0 , 0 + , or - + , then it makes sense to put the higher spec pack on the driver's side because of taco lean but that doesn't mean he got a bad set because they are + , +

    In his case he needs to make his adjustment up front , I only asked about the Dakar markings because some people have gotten a mixed set and put the lower spec pack on the driver's side not realizing it made a difference and that makes the lean worse

    885's aren't side specific either as long as you didn't put the one with the trim packer on the passenger side

    When you put the Dakar leaf pack on, is it recommended to get new bolts for the hangers(the bolts that hold the leaf pack to the frame)?

    See the .pdf

    I re-used them. As long as you don't over torque them, shouldn't be an issue. In the rear the only new bolts I used were the OME U-bolts.
