Upper bushing on Bilstein 5100s

How do I explain that though-like should you be able to tell by looking at the springs? color coded or something?

 

Thanks. Can anyone on the board PLEASE look at their factory springs on an '08 for color coding--before I initiate removal.

 

Anyone know the color code? (on mine, there is a blue and a grey mark on the front passenger side spring)-the dealer service rep is saying that the shocks were [definitely] replaced 1 at a time. The tech that did the replacement today definitely replaced 1 at a time as I got to go to the back and see for a minute. If the original tech installed them wrong and I can find out the color code, I can refute the claim.

 

This is off my '08 and it ought to say rh and lh as well as color. In this case yellow and white.

 

Fail! I think he was talking about the front springs

 

I put my 5100's on myself...one at a time so there was no confusion on which went where...I have the same problem...the passenger side sits about a half inch higher in the front and the back.

 

Damn I feel stupid.

Anyway my front springs are not color coded and both look like this.

 

Thanks guys. I have an appointment on Monday afternoon for the dealer to get another look. Yesterday, I took measurements again and things seem worse-unless i measured incorrectly the first time. P side rear is almost 1" and Pside front is at least 3/4 higher. My rear springs are on the correct sides per the pics above.

The service manager told me he witnessed both installs and insists the fronts were worked on one at a time. He also said that Toyota considers 1/2 difference "acceptable." I wonder what they consider up to one inch? Since they installed the 5100s for me (1.75") in place of the TSB Bilsteins, I bet they will blame it on that.
