Default Re: Did the torsion today

I only have one sticker left too.

Looking from the rear of the H3 the left spring has a sticker thats say "Right"

My torsion bars are marked correctly right and left.

I can't believe that many people wouldn't know right from left?

Could it be the springs are put on the frame when it is upside down??

My torsion bars are marked "L" and R", too, and are on the correct sides.

I looked at some new H3s on the trip I just returned from and found that every one I looked at had the leaf springs marked "R" and "L" on the correct sides.

Maybe there are more than a few of us with the springs reversed?

Question Re: Did the torsion today

This probably sounds dumb, but can you view the stickers on the leaf springs WITHOUT going under, or without lifting it? Of course, mine is still at the dealer while they TRY to figure out the problem .. but I'm wondering if when the leaf springs were put at the factory, if they either judged left/right while looking from the front back? When I get mine back, I want to try to find my stickers, or, at least take a look while it's still at the dealer and ask them. Does anyone think it makes a difference being in reverse, if they are in reverse?
