Hey guys , so i had the spring on drivers side fitted incorrectly i found out yesterday , i decided to just replace both front springs but i dont know yet which ones are the correct ones whether its for standard suspension or sport suspension i think the sport one but these are out of stock so anyway i decided today to remove the strut myself take it to a garage so then can just reposition the spring so that it sits properly which they have done , i come home with the strut try to fit it but it doesnt fit now because if i put the two strut bolts in the holes at the top the bottom of the shock which is supposed to sit on the lower arm is positioned sideways basically if i was to put the bottom of the shock on the lower arm the two bolts at the top wont be positioned so that they could go into the holes at the top i hope you understand , so now im thinking is there a way to fix it at home or what im thinking is that maybe the spring is not the correct one that should be on this car hence why it was positioned incorrectly in the first place so that it would allow for the strut to be fitted is that possible ? Cause now when its siting properly it wont allow for the strut to be installed. The spring has one green and two pink marks on it if that helps ? Im seriously starting to get desperate such a silly issue but somuch trouble with it.
