If the center pin is in the center of the spring it will move your axle back instead of forward. People use them for rear springs though. Toyota rears work well in the front because the center pin is forward of center. I am assuming this is a Toyota you are talking about.

yes ita a 86 4runner so if i am reading it right i should put the rears up front and s-10 in back or if the pin is in the right spot put the s-10 in front i believe its out of a 94 not for sure

I think that the hole on a s10 is to centered but I am not sure. I like the military wrap on the toyota spring and they flex good see.

Those are 90-95 springs 51" long, they are maxing a 14" shock
My brother did s10 in the rear and they also worked ok. I have 51" toyota spring front and rear.
