there should be a sticker or painted part number on the springs in the number will be a RR(rear right), RL(rear left), FR(front right), FL(front left) if it does not say front or rear the rears are the longer ones it doesn't matter what side the shock goes on just front and rear have you checked to make shore the shocks have the right ends for your sierra??

its not the shocks that matter which side i.e left right its the springs that are different for the front.
One is for the drivers side to make it sit even when a single person is in it


I dont have measurementsbefore and after but i know i couldnt fit 30's under it till i lifted it and havent had a problem with scrubbing and they drop down heaps to atleast a foot and a bit from lip of guard to top of tyre.


Trust me for the price they are good value for money.
Only thing i am looking at upgrading now is shocks but ive had them in for nearly three years and they have had a hard time every weekend from then on.

If i had to buy some again i would without a second thought.

If you stand the springs up on the ground, the drivers side spring should be slightly taller than the passenger side spring
