I installed a firewall cover and now I need to reinstall the springs in the back. How do they go?
Any pics will be appreciated.
Thanks

 

Seems to me there was a left and a right. I don't run out to the truck much lately since it has been so cold and it is tucked away for winter so no pics for now. Those little springs are a good brain teaser.

 

Check this thread: (thanks to BTW77)

Do you need to remove the glove box to install them?

 

I use a 1/8" thick X 5/8" X 1" super magnet. Works great.

 

What is the difference between the left and the right one? Any pics?
Thanks

 

this should help

I saw that thread, but it does not show which spring is which. Or how they really go.

 

post #4 has the catalogs that would help you greatly and post #6 has a link to pictures of the springs installed

didn't see you already posted Danleig...

 

I see that, but unfortunately, right now I do not have the repair manual and the pics are hard to see which one is which. I will eventually buy the repair manual, but right now I am dealing with a 4 year old Beagle that started having seizures, so money is really tight. I got the springs from a forum member for really cheap and when they arrive I would like to be able to install them without issues.
I am not very handy so any help is great help.

 

ok, Im at office...I will take some pictures when I get home this evening-post for you

 

Thank you so much for the help.

 

I don't really try to be abrasive and I'm sure some of my posts seem so. With that disclaimer out of the way...

You've spent the better part of three days trying to get this answer, but why don't you just go out to your truck and try it? You've got a 50/50 chance of figuring it out on your first try, and won't you feel really good when you figure it out?

 

Because I still have not received them. By the time they are here I would like to put them on without issues. Lately with all the vet bills, stress about my dog and other issues my patience is non existent. So I am trying to figure it out before they arrive so I do not lose it.

 

Ill get you these pics tonight or tomorrow-sorry for delay
