    Is it possible that they are rear springs fitted in the front???
    Check your rears to see if the coil wire is thinner.
    Somebody MAY have botched the fitting????
    GOODLUCK

    Hi Andrew
    I did check mine with the importer and they are correctly installed.
    Might just be the limitation of the D2.

    When we lift a truck with panhard on the front, the lift misplaces de front axle for a few mm. If I am right, with an adjustable panhard rod, we could center the axle and correct the misplacement dued to lift

    are they a progressive coil?

    if when at rest they have a gradually increasing or decreasing winding spacing or metal thickness there is a chance that they may have been installed in the right place on the vehicle but upside down.

    It might also be just a chance shadow but can you run a straight edge along the chassis over the top of the bump stop and see if the chassis is still flat on the edge. Just above where the scratch marks are from the spring contacting it looks like theres some deformation of the side of the rail if its deformed inwards you may find that the chassis has splayed outwards which can happen if the vehicle has had an offset front hit or tboned a moving vehicle.

    The coils are not progresive and the chassis is straight.
