    Hello Folks,

    I have a slight dilemma here.

    I removed my OEM springs from my '08 PreRunner SR5 in favor of 885X coils with 5100's @ ZERO. Now I decided to save up some $ & go with MaxTrax's & reinstall my OEM springs with my 5100's @ .85 or 1.75.

    My "dilemma" is that I forgot which spring goes on which side.

    (1) has 2 yellow paint marks

    (1) has 1 green & 1 yellow paint mark.

    Can anyone with a PreRunner (or TRD Sport, I belive they have the same springs) check their OEM springs & tell me which color goes on which side?

    Thanks
    :D

    Looks like I may have answered my own question:

    Bump. I too am looking for an answer to this, I have a set of offroad springs that have blue-green marks on one and purple on another. Which goes where?

    I think it might be easier to set both on a flat surface and whichever is the tallest, goes on the driver's side to compensate the taco lean
