Default Need help with Eibach springs.

Hey I bought some Eibach springs off Ebay a few months ago, I was waiting until I get some shocks before puting them on. I was looking at them today and I cant tell wich ones are for the front and which are for the rear. They all look the same but they have different numbers on them. 2 of them have Eibach O P on one coil and EW 4043002 HA on another coil. The other 2 have Eibach O O on one coil and EW 4043001 VA on the other coil. Does it matter which one go in the front and which go in the rear? Or did they send me two sets of front springs? Any info wouold be alot of help. THX

James

Longer springs in front, shorter springs in rear.

If it were me, I'd just contact Eibach. I know there's a phone number on their website, www.eibach.com; I've called them before

Check the serial #'s on the springs. The ones ending in 01 go in front; those ending in 02 go in back. Also, as mentioned above, the front springs should be slightly taller than the rears.
