Is it a 2wd or a 4wd? On mine they go on top of the spring. I'm not sure if it's different for a 4x4.

Your welcome. You can read this. Looks like a PITA. I'm taking mine to someone to have them do it for me.

I have a 4x4 and mine are on top of the spring. I didn't feel comfortable putting them in myself so i had the local shop do it.

Took me about an hour to do mine. But mine is a 4x4 which probably makes it alot easier.
