 On the install just split the difference in the pockets. Hmmm, Are you putting STOCK? front springs in?

  I know this was just brought up a while ago but I can't find the info in my 
saved mail. I am installing new front coil springs in my 61 Rampside. The ends 
of the coil will only line up with either the top or bottom coil stop. If the 
top is in place the bottom is off by about 90 degrees (end of coil at 3 o'clock, 
stop at 6 o'clock as looking down on lower control arm from drivers side). I'm 
thinking it would be preferable to have the coil engaged in the lower control 
arm. Your experience and opinions would be helpful. I will probably call Clark's 
tomorrow and ask them as well. Thank you.
