Good suggestion Dave!~  When I removed my original front springs, the lower coil was broken off on one of them, and I never knew it!~

That spring pocket can be a big problem.  I've had it out on two of my other cars. On one, the end was above the indent and the other it was about 180 off.

Usually if the springs aren't clocked correctly they will rub where they pass through the frame.
