A cover over the spring? Or the shock? I never had any kind of cover over my springs.

Wait, unless you mean the top part for the clamping? Where the nut bolts the spring down to the shock. Is that what you are talking about?


In that case, are you sure you got the right ground controls? Or did you install the rear springs on the front and vice versa?
