    What year?   On later  years (68-72) the end of the spring coil is suppose to be located between those 2 holes.  IE One hole will be blocked by the spring & one hole will be open when viewed from below..   Don't know about earlier years.

    Depends on the year. Some control arms are indented for the end of the spring. I did not use spacers on the front the rear had them on top.

    I have two questions 1.) where does the bottom end of the front coil spring sit in the lower control arm ? the deepest part is after the 2 weep holes clockwise looking down. 2.) should there be rubber spaceres between the spring and fram/ control arm ? I've done this before but I don't think I did it right. driver side sat 3/4 "in. lower than pass side. thanks for any help, Jimmy .C
