new rear springs only have one clamp

[badmix]

ordered skyjacker springs from ORD, the rears only have one spring clamp. Is this right ?

The fronts have 2 clamps.

Plan to call ORD tomorrow but curious

My factory rear 52's only have one clamp, on the forward side of the spring. I don't think it's anything to worry about. Some guys will even open them up for more flex.

Ok, thanks. Does it matter which side clamp on ? Or are these installed one way only? Never replaced springs before

They seem same length and eyelets same on both ends

That is correctly observed.
52" springs are symmetrical.
I would mount them with the clamp to the front.
That helps the pinion pointing up at extreme droop.

From skyjacker website, LONG end of spring to rear.

That is correct for 56" springs.

52" is equal length, so, I don't have a long end per se
