Yep those are progressive springs and they do have a top/bottom. When they were doing that lift they certainly should have disconnected that little bracket that holds the rear brake lines to the frame for more flex during the install. Those suckers are TIGHT!!!!
Might also want to look into extending your ABS wires as well.
I'm going by there today to have a chat. ;-)

Reason: typos
Bring a baseball bat and knock some sense into these dip$hits! I'm sorry it get's me pissed when someone pays good money(& this was not cheap!) to do a job and a so called "Rovers Only" shop F's up the simplest thing. This isn't even a "new guy" mistake, unless the new guy is blind. Ok, I'll stop.
When you go to the shop take pics of ALL the work they did and post them. I think you see that everyone here will give you a straight opinion/help. Good luck & take NO $hit!

Thanks. Seriously glad you guys found the issues. I have gone out and watched the AB video. It's called out very obviously there. They were supposed to fix an oil pan leak too...and look at the RMS while they were in there. I'll do some digging. I'll post more pics later. Thanks again.

A few years ago someone told me I did my springs wrong. I got them right side up but I was told by a VERY senior member ( like the Adam or Cain of this forum.. I can't recall who it was. Either DiscoMike or ArmyRover. Or some silverback of that stature) that the taller/thicker springs go on the driver side, and not front to back, as I'd placed them, having neither instructions nor patience included in the box of springs. I scoffed. But then others chimed in and affirmed that position. I am skinny so I continue to scoff and wallow in ignorance of an official answer to the idea that heavier springs go on the driver side hecause large persons may sit there more often than on the passenger side.
Anyway, just a trip down memory lane. I'll see what I can find.
Okay I found the same answer. I also read that US trucks have longer springs on the driver side hecause of where the driver sits and our road slopes. How persnickity. My springs stay where they are, but now I am SURE that when I get home I will notice a slight lean, whether it is really there or not. I'll put a bag of sand on the passenger side.

Terrafirma springs are clearly marked like DS/PS for side to side and I've been told on Terrafirma springs you place em where the wording is upside down.

Yeah, I had a word with them this morning where I was told the back springs are flat on both ends to which I referenced them to the video and then took them out to show them that was not the case. :-/ They had already remedied the one back one and were working the fronts. I think the message was received.

Reason: Grammar
Okay, progress continues to be made. When installing the snorkel, I noticed the below hose was worn. Anyone know if I can source it separate from a complete air box assembly and what it's called (even part number if you're Super Land Rover person). :-) Thanks!
