B&G spring install which way is rightside up?? somone!!

i feel like a stupid a$$ but which way do the springs go in? theres writing on the spring and when it reads the right way the rubber coating is on the top of the spring. When upsidown the rubber coated coils are on the bottom which i thought it should have been until the text was upsidown? is there a differnce it kinda looks like smaller coils on one end by a little bit but idk. -Ryan

when i put my teins on, the lettering ended up upside down

follow what your stock ones are....if the rubber on those sits on the lower perch, then do the same with the aftermarket ones

the coils sit one way in the lower perch. You will notice it right off with the rear. smaller coils in the bottom. For the front you will see that the spring seats better one way or the other.
