    Quick Question on Springs

    The platform that the front suspension springs rest on. Is there a notch that the end of the spring must be seated in to be installed correctly? I still have some play in handling and was curious that if my springs weren't seated properly, it might cause the symptom I'm experiencing.

    Oh SNAP!!! German Engineering is IN DA HAUS YAH!!!

    The bottom perch and a hat on top have the place where the spring end sits. There are also rubber gaskets that are shaped to fit the spring ends. If the spring is not seated properly it should be obvious by looking at it.
