bc coilovers spring problem!! URGENT!!

[illdraweyouapic]

im installing my coilovers right now and ran into some problems

the spring for the rear is too big with the springs rubbing on the bucket it sits on.
is there a different or 2.5 and 3.5 springs?? cause i dont think there is

[IBCoupe]

Wait, I don't understand. What's the problem?

It's the same springs.

[illdraweyouapic]

thats what i thought.

sorry i cant post a pic but the how the spring is sitting in the bucket it will rub against it because the spring's diameter is way too big for the bucket

[IBCoupe]

Try turning it upside-down. I don't remember the way it sits in mine, but I know it's a tapered thing. One end of the spring is tighter than th eother.

well i bought these used so the seller might given me the wrong springs

because the springs compared to the stock ones are a lot wider in diameter. do you remember if yours was like this too??

[IBCoupe]

I don't remember. I installed mine early in the summer. I'd give you pictures, but I won't have a cable to connect to my computer until I get home late tonight. They should look like a cone, not a straight cylinder.

[illdraweyouapic]

yeahh and did you notice one side is bigger than the other by just a little and both of the springs rotate the same direction??

[IBCoupe]

The two springs should be the same size.

try get some pics up. pics a worth more than a million words

[illdraweyouapic]

yeah i know

i just forgot to take it and then when i realized it ive already put the OEM ones in and was too lazy to put it back on and then take the picture again. but when i do ill let you guys know or if any of you can take a picture of how the rear springs sit i can compare to mine and just figure it out

[IBCoupe]

I'll see what I can do. Might have to wait a couple days; I'm going to be very busy tonight and tomorrow before and after class.
