    I recently installed a ironman nitro gas 3" lift on a 2020 ORP. I have a very likely stupid question.

    Struts were pre built.

    I made sure driver went on driver side and passenger on passenger. I realized AFTER my alignment, which went fine, the top end of the spring is facing outwards. I know for yotas the side matters but does forward backwards matter? I assume not as long as the top hat and cushion is seated properly.

    Thanks! I love the stance and look overall. Just noticed my spring isn't oriented like others I've seen.
